NFL executive discusses reasons behind Raiders decision to pass on Shedeur Sanders
The Las Vegas Raiders were linked to quarterback Shedeur Sanders before the 2025 NFL Draft, but ultimately passed on him multiple times. One league executive speculated that head coach Pete Carroll’s relationship with Geno Smith influenced this decision. Smith previously played for Carroll and was signed by the Raiders this offseason, leading some to wonder if Sanders could be a target at pick No. 6. However, the Raiders ended up selecting running back Ashton Jeanty instead. Despite Jeanty being praised as a solid prospect, some believe the Raiders may regret not taking a chance on Sanders, who fell in the draft.
