## Resource

What should Raiders fans realistically expect from the Silver & Black in 2026? 🏴‍☠️ On this episode of Raiders Squad, former Raiders Pro Bowl offensive lineman Lincoln Kennedy & Shantelle Chand to break down expectations for the Raiders heading into the 2026 NFL season. The crew discusses whether Las Vegas can exceed expectations, what a successful season looks like under Klint Kubiak, and whether the Raiders can surpass their projected 5.5-win total. Plus, we react to comments from Tom Pelissero and examine which young players could make the biggest impact this year. Which rookie is set up for success? Which second-year player is ready to take the next step? And who has the most to prove entering training camp? We also put the spotlight on Isaiah Pola-Mao, Treydan Stukes, and Caleb Rogers, discussing their potential roles and opportunities in 2026. Finally, Lincoln and Shantelle answer fan questions and comments as Raider Nation gets ready for another season of football.
