The Las Vegas Raiders have been linked to Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson as a potential trade target. The rumor, attributed to Hondo Carpenter, suggests Jefferson may seek a move if his struggles with inconsistent quarterback play continue. Jefferson's relationship with newly hired Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak, with whom he previously had success in Minnesota, could factor into any potential trade discussions.
