## Resource

The Las Vegas Raiders’ training camp is heating up with a quiet but crucial battle brewing on the offensive line: Jordan Meredith and Will Putnam are fighting for the last roster spot — or possibly none at all. With eight linemen likely locked in, the team’s decision to carry a ninth could hinge on who performs best, but it’s also a strategic chess match involving salary cap space and trade potential. Meredith, with solid past stats, might edge out the cheaper, versatile Putnam — especially if releasing Meredith frees up cap room or opens trade possibilities. This small battle could ripple through the roster, potentially reshaping the team’s depth chart — even influencing whether they keep a ninth lineman or reallocate that spot to a third QB or another position.
