Raiders rookie could step up in a big way

Raiders rookie could step up in a big way

As the Las Vegas Raiders prepare for their road game against the Cincinnati Bengals this Sunday, changes may occur.

The Raiders offense has struggled all season. They can’t establish the run or get the pass going. We’ve only glimpsed what this offense should look like every time they step on the field.

The bright spot in this Raiders offense has been the two rookies who have stepped up and stepped up on offense. Jackson Powers-Johnson and DJ Glaze played well. They will be the future of the Raiders on offense.

And this week we may see Powers-Johnson taking snaps at center. Power-Johnson has experience at the center position since his college days.

“Getting those reps and getting that cohesion with the offense and Gardner, I think it’s great,” the Raiders offensive lineman said Jackson Powers Johnson. “I think you have to communicate a lot more just because the center has more responsibility. He has to read the defense and somehow command the line. I just keep learning and keep building, and you know like you said, building. Cohesion with the offense. I am ready to leave if necessary.

Powers Johnson will be the leader of this offense for years to come.

“I mean, it’s hard. But I have great people around me. I have the whole line pushing for me and wanting to be great, so you know, these guys waving to me and helping me too, they just make it happen. When you go into a situation where you’re basically dead in the water, you know it’s really hard. I am blessed to have many great people around me.

Another injury could force the Raiders to move their offensive line once again.

“It felt good. Since I’ve been here I’ve taken a lot of snapshots. So it’s definitely been a learning curve and I’ve had to kind of get back on the bike and ride the tricycle again, but I’m going to keep trying to get percentage better every day.
