Raiders Release Damon Arnette Monday
3 years agoThe Las Vegas Raiders released former first-round cornerback Damon Arnette on Monday, according to a source. Arnette was the team's 19th overall pick in the first round of the 2020 draft. Just a year later, the Raiders no longer have either of their first-round selections from 2020 (Arnette and wide receiver Henry Ruggs III) on their roster. Arnette, 25, landed on Injured Reserve after suffering a groin injury against the Los Angeles Chargers. In 13 games (seven starts) for the Raiders, he had only 29 tackles (23 solo) and three passes defensed. It's safe to say the Raiders 2020 draft will go down as a colossal disaster. Of their first four picks in that draft, only receiver Bryan Edwards is on the current roster.
