The Las Vegas Raiders have officially released linebacker Jamin Davis, according to a report from @AdamSchefter of ESPN. The transaction marks the end of the linebacker's brief tenure with the organization as the team continues to shuffle its defensive personnel.
Jamin Davis entered the league as a first-round selection, taken 19th overall by the Washington Commanders in the 2021 NFL Draft out of Kentucky. During his professional career, Davis has appeared in 50 games, recording 269 total tackles and seven sacks. He joined the Raiders earlier this season seeking a fresh start after being waived by Washington in August.
The Raiders have not yet announced a corresponding roster move to fill the vacancy created by the release of Jamin Davis. The veteran linebacker will now either head to the waiver wire or become an unrestricted free agent, depending on the specific designation of his release. This move comes as Las Vegas evaluates its defensive depth and roster flexibility for the remainder of the season.
