Former Clemson star Christian Wilkins released by Raiders in a shocking, sticky situation
Just over a year after making Christian Wilkins one of the highest-paid defensive linemen in the NFL, the Las Vegas Raiders are moving on. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Raiders have released Wilkins with the designation of a terminated vested veteran—voiding the remainder of his guaranteed money in the process. Wilkins signed a four-year, $110 million deal with Las Vegas in March 2024, with the expectation he'd anchor their defensive front. But after suffering a Jones fracture in his foot just five games into last season, he never saw the field again. Initially projected to be healthy before the team's 2025 offseason program began, Wilkins experienced a setback in his recovery that kept him out entirely and ultimately landed him on the Physically Unable to Perform list for the start of training camp. The Raiders took issue with how Wilkins managed his rehab, and last month voided the remaining $35.2 million in guarantees on his contract. Wilkins has now filed a grievance with the NFL Players Association to challenge that decision. "This is a situation that is far from over," Schefter noted. Much could depend on the language in Wilkins' deal, particularly regarding rehab obligations and medical care. In six NFL seasons, Wilkins has played in 86 games (82 starts) and tallied 372 total tackles, 22.5 sacks, and four forced fumbles. Despite being sidelined for most of 2024, the 28-year-old still has plenty of prime years left—making this an unusual and potentially messy end to what began as a marquee signing. At Clemson, Wilkins was a three-time All-American who became the fifth unanimous All-American in school history. The National Champion ended his career with the Tigers, recording 250 tackles, 41 tackles for loss, 16 sacks, 56 quarterback pressures, 16 pass breakups, three forced fumbles, and four fumble recoveries in 2,441 snaps over 59 games, with 49 starts. Whether another team takes a chance on him soon may hinge on how his foot progresses—and how this contract dispute plays out.

Raiders release Christian Wilkins after one season. Why?
Twelve months ago, the Las Vegas Raiders made defensive tackle Christian Wilkins one of the highest-paid defenders in the league with a huge deal in free agency. One year later, the two have parted ways. The Raiders have released Wilkins, they announced Thursday night on social media, one year into the five-year, $110 million deal they signed him to last offseason. Wilkins suffered a Jones fracture in his foot in Week 5 against the Denver Broncos last season and missed the rest of the year. He had surgery to repair the fracture and was placed on the reserve/PUP list on July 18. Less than a week later, the franchise released him. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that Wilkins and the Raiders disagreed on another surgery to repair his foot. Las Vegas reportedly wanted him to have that done while Wilkins declined. "We have decided that it is in the best interests of the organization to move on from Christian Wilkins and he has been informed of his release from the team," the Raiders said in a statement. "The franchise has a commitment to excellence on and off the field. With no clear path or plan for future return to play from Christian, this transaction is necessary for the entire organization to move forward and prepare for the new season." Las Vegas has already paid Wilkins nearly $22 million of the $57 million in guaranteed money included in his contract signed last offseason. The Raiders voided the remaining $35.2 million of his contract in June, per ESPN's Adam Schefter, but Wilkins has filed a grievance with the NFL Players' Association over that.

Ex-Raiders Coach Antonio Pierce Resurfaces With Surprising New Job
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Former Pro Bowl linebacker Antonio Pierce had a pretty forgettable run as the head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. Pierce, who took over as interim coach in 2023 after Josh McDaniels was fired following a 3-5 start, went 5-4 and guided Vegas to a second-place finish in the AFC West. He had a groundswell of support from several Raiders players including former wide receiver Davante Adams and star pass-rusher Maxx Crosby, who wanted owner Mark Davis to offer Pierce the job on a full-time basis. Davis listened to his players and removed the interim tag from Pierce's title in January of 2024. "I went through a nine-week interview process for the head coaching job of the Raiders, and it was unanimous from the players, fans, alumni and staff that Antonio Pierce was the right man moving forward. He earned that," Davis told The Athletic in reference to his time as interim coach. "... What surprised me was how successful he was at winning over the team as quickly as he did. Winning over the fan base as quickly as he did. Winning over the alumni as quickly as he did. And winning over the building as quickly as he did."

Head coach Antonio Pierce of the Las Vegas Raiders reacts while officials discuss a call in the first quarter of a game against the Los Angeles Chargers at Allegiant Stadium on January 05, 2025 in Las Vegas, Nevada. MoreMore NFL: Tua Tagovailoa Sends Warning Shot to Tyreek Hill After Talk of Leaving Dolphins But the excitement of the Raiders thinking outside the box in hiring Pierce, an unconventional choice to lead an NFL team with just one-and-a-half season of NFL coaching experience under his belt, wore off quickly. With the Raiders finishing with a 4-13 record, Pierce was fired after the season and replaced by Super Bowl-winning head coach Pete Carroll — a hand-picked replacement by minority owner Tom Brady. And while Pierce hasn't received any NFL interest in the months since, he has landed a new gig in an NFL-adjacent profession. Athletes in Action, a consulting firm that works with amateur and professional athletes, announced on its Instagram page that it had hired Pierce to serve as its new chief strategy advisor.

It's unlikely Pierce will land another head-coaching job in the NFL anytime soon given the way his Raiders tenure went. Vegas started off 2-11 last season and Adams, the team's star WR at that point, made it known he wanted out, essentially forcing a trade to the New York Jets so he could play with former teammate Aaron Rodgers. Pierce does have experience as a linebackers coach in the NFL, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him land a defensive assistant coaching job at some point.
