The Las Vegas Raiders successfully claimed cornerback Darrell Luter off waivers on Monday, securing the player ahead of several other interested NFL teams. The Tennessee Titans, Miami Dolphins, Dallas Cowboys, and Indianapolis Colts also submitted claims for Luter, but the Raiders held the top waiver priority. Luter, a fifth-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, spent his first two professional seasons with the San Francisco 49ers while managing multiple injuries. In 2025, he logged 28 tackles, one fumble recovery, and one pass defensed. The Titans viewed the addition as a potential reinforcement for a secondary currently navigating injuries to Kendell Brooks and Joshua Williams. Had Luter cleared the Raiders' top-priority claim, he would have likely joined Tennessee to reunite with defensive coordinator Robert Saleh.
