The Las Vegas Raiders are in their third week of organized team activities (OTAs) before mandatory minicamp, with nickel back Taron Johnson attending for the first time after missing the initial sessions. Johnson, who was absent due to contract negotiations, participated on June 1, 2026, and was spotted dressed in uniform. His participation is crucial as the Raiders adjust to new systems and coaching staff. The team has expressed optimism about his return and is focused on solidifying the secondary. If Johnson's attendance continues, it alleviates concerns about depth at the nickel position as they prepare for the upcoming minicamp.
