The Las Vegas Raiders have signed center Tyler Linderbaum to a three-year, $81 million contract, the highest for an interior lineman. The move addresses a major weakness, as the Raiders’ offensive line ranked among the worst in the NFL last season. However, they still face competition from the stronger lines of the Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Chargers, and Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC West. While Linderbaum offers a potential upgrade, questions remain about the other four positions, which are unsettled ahead of training camp. The Raiders need to finalize their starting line before the upcoming season begins.
