The Raiders continue to evaluate the cornerback position by hosting Tre Hawkins III for a workout on Wednesday. This move follows the recent waiver claim of Darrell Luter Jr as the team looks to adjust its roster depth in the secondary. At 6-foot-3, Hawkins would be the tallest cornerback on the current roster if signed. He was originally selected by the New York Giants in the sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft and spent last season with the Commanders. His professional career has been hindered by injuries during training camps, limiting his time on the field to 21 total appearances. The organization is seeking to add depth and experience as the season progresses.
