Raiders explore options to enhance struggling return game this summer
Summary

The Las Vegas Raiders are focusing on revitalizing their return game ahead of the upcoming season. Special teams coordinator Joe DeCamillis is assessing potential contributors during OTAs, as the team seeks to end a long absence of standout kick and punt returns. Notable candidates include Tre Tucker, who has limited experience returning kicks in the NFL despite a strong college record, Dylan Laube, and Dareke Young. The Raiders will reconvene for training camp at the end of July to further evaluate these options.
