Raiders Re-sign Ian Thomas, Strengthen Tight End Group

0:00On April 7th, the Las Vegas Raiders just resigned back up, tied in Ian Thomas, locking in their tied-in group for now. No new free agents added, no one departed, and the roster stands at Brock Bowers, Michael Mayer, Thomas, Carter Runyon, and Albert Oakwick-Wolman. This move keeps things stable, heading into training camp. Thomas joined the Raiders last year, after seven seasons with the Carolina Panthers. He appeared in 15 games, hauling in 13 catches for 114 yards. Solid depth piece without flash, but he fits the scheme. Fans and analysts see this as a smart, low-key play. Bowers and Mayer anchored the starters, while Thomas grabs rotational snaps. It gives the coaching staff reliable options without breaking the bank. Runyon, an undrafted standout from last year, has a real shot at the 53-man roster as a fourth tight end. Oakwick-A-Mon likely heads to the practice squad. No trades or releases shake things up. With this depth chart set, the Raiders' tight ends look ready to block and catch, setting up a smooth, off-season pivot to preseason battles.
