Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell made an effort to be in the building this offseason.
The Las Vegas Raiders have been hungry this offseason, going all the way back to the winter months when All-Pro defensive end Maxx Crosby was influencing his teammates to join him at the facility.
As the weeks went on, more and more Raiders filled the building, with hopes that their early commitment would make a difference this coming season."Me and my wife are both from the Midwest, and so, I think a big part of it was just we didn't want to go back to the cold, we just wanted to stay in Vegas," O'Connell told reporters on Tuesday. "But obviously, just to be here with our strength coaches in our facility with the resources we have is awesome.
O'Connell has the upper hand because he is familiar with the franchise and finished last year as the starter, but he will still have to earn it this summer.
