We have reached 90 days until the Raiders kick off the 2025 NFL season. That means we take a look at the jersey…
No. 90Who’s wearing it now: DE Ovie Oghoufo
Oghoufo went undrafted out of LSU in 2024. He originally signed with the New York Giants, but didn’t make the final roster. Midway through the 2024 season, the Raiders added him to the practice squad. Then they signed him to a reserve/future contract following the season.

Who wore it best: DT Grady Jackson
Big Grady was a true old school nose tackle. At 6-2, 345 pounds, he didn’t move easily. The Raiders drafted him in the sixth round of the 1997 NFL Draft out of Knoxville College. He soon became a team and fan favorite. By his second season, he was a regular part of the defensive line rotation of the resurgent Raiders team of the late 90s. And he was a full time starter in their playoff runs in 2000-01.

Jackson put up a career-high eight sacks in 2000 and his tackle numbers of 68 and 69 in those two seasons was quite respectable. All told he spent five years with the Raiders before bouncing around the league the remainder of his 13-year NFL career, spending time with the Saints, Packers, Falcons, Jaguars, and Lions.
