Oakland Raiders Are Reporting For Training Camp

The Oakland Raiders training camp takes off Thursday, July 26. First practices will happen on the 27th and 28th, then the team will put their pads on for the first time since the end of the last season on July 29th.

The Raiders begin their preseason playing under returning head coach Jon Gruden. He is very confident the team will have a successful year, as he shared in an interview with USA TODAY, “If I can’t get it done, I’m not going to take their money,” on Tuesday, July 24.

Gruden is beginning the year with confidence in not only himself, but the Raiders. If he ‘can’t get it done’ he will not take the Raiders money, which could mean he would not take the $100 million dollars of his contract.

“Who guarantees I’m going to live 10 years? [ …] So I don’t think about that. You start thinking about a 10-year contract – people don’t know how it’s structured and it doesn’t matter. The only thing that matters is, ‘Is Khalil Mack going to be here? Is Donald Penn going to be ready to play?’ I’ve got more important things to worry about than eight years of my contract.”
