Tue Sep 10 17:09:54 UTC 2024: ## Raiders Sign Former First-Round Pick K’Lavon Chaisson to Bolster Defensive Line
**Las Vegas, NV -** The Las Vegas Raiders have reportedly signed linebacker K’Lavon Chaisson to bolster their struggling defense. The move comes after a disappointing season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers, where the Raiders gave up a league-high 176 rushing yards.
Chaisson, a former first-round pick of the Jacksonville Jaguars, was recently released by the Carolina Panthers. The 24-year-old had a promising start to his career, but injuries and inconsistent play hindered his development. Chaisson is expected to provide depth at edge rusher, filling in for injured players Tyree Wilson and Malcolm Koonce.
“We’re excited to add K’Lavon to our defensive unit,” said a Raiders spokesperson. “His athleticism and experience will be valuable assets as we try to improve our performance on that side of the ball.”
Chaisson will be looking to contribute immediately as the Raiders face the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. The team is hoping he can help shore up their defensive deficiencies and make a statement against a formidable opponent.
