Even after back-to-back wins over both of New York’s football teams, the Las Vegas Raiders still have moves to make.
On Monday, the Raiders put in a claim for former New England Patriots cornerback Jack Jones. Today, they had to clear a spot for him on the roster.
According to ProFootballTalk, defensive end Isaac Rochell is the unlucky man out. The Raiders released him today after making him inactive in Week 10.
Rochell has played eight games for the Raiders this season and has 10 tackles between defense and special teams.

Taking to X a short while ago, Rochell confirmed that he has been released.
“I’ve been released by the @Raiders,” Rochell wrote.

Isaac Rochell is a seven-year veteran with 113 tackles, 9.5 sacks, an interception and 17 quarterback hits in 78 career games.
As for Jack Jones, the player replacing him on the Raiders’ roster, he was a fourth-round pick by the Patriots who appeared to be in line for stardom after a strong rookie season.
But in five games for the Patriots, Jones has registered just one pass defended.
