The Las Vegas Raiders are making big moves this offseason, and it’s all about getting younger. Under new head coach Klint Kubiak, the team is shaking things up—starting with the No. 1 overall pick, quarterback Fernando Mendoza, but the changes don’t stop there.

In a clear signal of a youth movement, the Raiders have parted ways with veteran linebacker Charles Snowden. Snowden, who started 18 games over the past two seasons and appeared in 31 total for Las Vegas, was waived on Monday. He leaves behind a solid stat line: 67 tackles and 4.5 sacks. But in the NFL, roster spots are precious, and the Raiders are making room for fresh faces.

Snowden wasn’t the only one shown the door. The team also released offensive guards McClendon Curtis and Layden Robinson, along with tight end Matt Lauter. These cuts clear the way for four new signings—all undrafted rookies who impressed during the team’s recent rookie minicamp.

Joining the Silver and Black are offensive tackles Niklas Henning and Kamar Missouri, safety Devyn Perkins, and tight end Patrick Gurd. While many of these names may not make the final 53-man roster (teams can carry 90 players during the offseason before trimming down to 53, plus a 16-man practice squad), the move signals a fresh start in Vegas.

For Snowden, the road isn’t over—he’s a proven contributor and could easily land with another team looking for linebacker depth. But for the Raiders, it’s all about building for the future, one roster spot at a time.
