The Las Vegas Raiders suffered a major setback as defensive end Malcolm Koonce is expected to miss the entire season due to a serious knee injury sustained during practice. This injury impacts the Raiders significantly, as Koonce had just come off his best season with eight sacks.
Now, the team is shifting its focus to Tyree Wilson, who is expected to fill Koonce's role despite having a challenging start to his career. The Raiders are also looking to other defensive ends like Janarius Robinson, Charles Snowden, and newly signed K’Lavon Chaisson to contribute in the absence of Koonce.
