Raiders Sign Veteran Linebacker Devin White Seeking Defensive Revival

News summary

The Las Vegas Raiders have revamped their linebacker corps for the 2025 NFL season, most notably signing linebacker Devin White, a former Tampa Bay Buccaneers star and Super Bowl champion. White, who struggled with injuries and inconsistent play in recent seasons with the Eagles and Texans, sees this as a fresh start and an opportunity to prove he can still perform at a Pro Bowl level. His decision to join the Raiders was heavily influenced by his strong relationship with Raiders GM John Spytek, who originally scouted and helped draft White in Tampa Bay. While Raider legends like Tom Brady, now a minority owner, are not involved in day-to-day operations, White maintains contact with Brady, who he describes as one of the best locker room presences he's experienced. The Raiders aim to improve their defense significantly, especially in run stopping, after losing key linebackers Robert Spillane and Divine Deablo. With White, Elandon Roberts, and Germaine Pratt joining on one-year deals, the linebacker room is in a proving phase, with White expected to bring leadership, speed, and versatility to the team.
