Geno Smith’s workout video sparks easy Raiders free agency rumors….
With the first week of free agency behind them, the Las Vegas Raiders still have roster gaps to address. However, they’ve made solid signings, including securing Geno Smith as their quarterback.
One major concern remains at wide receiver, where Jakobi Meyers is the only proven option, though he isn’t a true WR1. A potential move for DK Metcalf never gained real momentum before he was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers. While free agent options are dwindling, the Raiders are expected to make a move.
ESPN Raiders beat writer Ryan McFadden has suggested a possible target:
*”Las Vegas could go after former Houston Texans receiver Stefon Diggs. Although Diggs, 31, is recovering from a torn ACL, he would be a significant upgrade if he returns to full strength. Before his injury, he racked up 496 yards in the first eight weeks of his lone season with Houston.”*
Diggs, known for stirring speculation with his cryptic social media activity, recently removed Buffalo Bills-related posts from his Instagram, further fueling rumors.
**Raiders-Stefon Diggs speculation grows after workout video with Geno Smith**
On Sunday, a Twitter video surfaced showing Smith working out with Diggs.
The clip notes that Diggs is just four to five months removed from his ACL tear. The timing of the post seems intentional, possibly signaling his readiness to teams still looking for wide receivers. Working out with Smith naturally intensifies the Raiders speculation.
The Raiders are expected to sign a receiver soon, and while Diggs is a logical option, concerns over his health could lower his priority on their list.
Offseason workout videos once again make waves, stirring up free agency chatter.
