Overview
- Defensive end Kwity Paye left a Raiders practice early after seeing a trainer and did not return to the session, according to reporting from The Athletic.
- Head coach Klint Kubiak told reporters the club believes Paye is okay and that coaches are being cautious to protect him.
- Paye joined Las Vegas this offseason on a three-year, $48 million deal and is expected to start opposite Maxx Crosby while sharing reps with Malcolm Koonce and Keyron Crawford.
- The Raiders opened camp with almost full participation and have scheduled a day off followed by an open practice, giving staff time to re-evaluate player availability before padded work resumes.
- Coaches praised Paye’s physical traits and say the team will watch him over the next practices; the situation is being treated as a short-term precaution rather than a confirmed injury.
