Raiders’ Sleeper Back Emerges | Las Vegas Raiders News

The Raiders are quietly building a monster offense, and their fourth-round steal, Mike Washington Jr., might be the biggest surprise of the draft. Picked at 122, he’s already making waves with 119 yards and a 33-yard TD run in preseason, plus elite college stats and pass-catching ability. At 6’1” and 223 lbs, he’s a rare dual-threat back who can also protect the QB — and with starter Ashton Jeanty sidelined, Washington Jr. is primed for big snaps. Don’t sleep on this sleeper pick — he could be the breakout player everyone missed. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
