Overview
- Las Vegas moved up one spot with Buffalo and used pick No. 101 to select Tennessee cornerback Jermod McCoy.
- McCoy missed the 2025 season after a torn ACL and had a previous bone plug placed to address degenerative cartilage in the same knee.
- Reports explained his draft slide by noting he could need another knee surgery that might sideline him for a full season early in his career.
- After the selection, McCoy told reporters his knee feels good and said he will follow the team’s medical plan if doctors recommend a procedure.
- Raiders executive Brandon Hunt said any decision on further surgery will come after the club’s medical staff evaluates McCoy in-house.
