Rookie CB Jermod McCoy gets work with Raiders 1st team in OTA's
Raiders round four rookie CB Jermod McCoy is on the field for OTA's and getting some run versus the first team.
Jermod McCoy was widely regarded as a steal when the Las Vegas Raiders selected him at pick 101 in the fourth round. The Tennessee star cornerback was projected as a first round talent prior to draft night. The talented corner was sidelined throughout the entire 2025 campaign at Tennessee, as McCoy suffered a torn ACL in January which more than likely played a direct role in his draft night slide.
Raiders team media noted McCoy was practicing during Raiders’ OTA’s this week, and even seeing reps with the veterans on the first team, signaling that the corner appears to be recovering from his injury ahead of schedule. I’ve learned from my rookie minicamp mistake. This is FOR REAL Jermod McCoy practicing at OTAs.
He’s even getting some reps on the vet field today against Kirk Cousins. #Raiders pic. twitter.
