Elandon Roberts Agrees With Raiders On One-Year Deal
17 mins agoPittsburgh Steelers free-agent linebacker Elandon Roberts reached an agreement on Monday night with the Las Vegas Raiders on a one-year, $3 million contract, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The deal was negotiated by agent Drew Rosenhaus. Roberts will help replace standout linebacker Robert Spillane in 2025. The 30-year-old veteran spent the last two seasons in Pittsburgh. After 100-plus-tackle seasons with the Miami Dolphins in 2022 and the Steelers in 2023, Roberts took a step back last year with only 46 tackles (24 solo), one sack, five tackles for loss and a forced fumble in 17 regular-season games (14 starts). The former sixth-round selection (214th overall) by the New England Patriots in 2016 out of Houston played fewer than 50 percent of the defensive snaps in his final season in Pittsburgh but should have a shot a a near every-down role again in Vegas.
