The Las Vegas Raiders may have found themselves their much needed playmaking pass rusher.
Multiple reports on Monday say Pro Bowl linebacker Yannick Ngakoue has reached an agreement to join the Las Vegas Raiders.
Ngakoue would join defensive coordinator Gus Bradley in Las Vegas. Bradley was head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars when Ngakoue joined the league in 2016.
Ngakoue spent the first part of the 2020 season with Minnesota, after he was traded there by Jacksonville for two draft choices. He was then dealt to Baltimore after five games. He recorded eight sacks in 15 games last season.
The Raiders were 30th in team defense in 2020.
