The Las Vegas Raiders' defense forced three turnovers, registered four sacks, and allowed 28 points during Sunday's Week 14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. While the defense struggled to keep points off the board, the unit did a good job taking advantage of Baker Mayfield's mistakes through the air and applying pressure frequently. Defensive standouts for the Raiders included Tre'von Moehrig (eight tackles, 0.5 sacks, three passes defended, one fumble recovery), K'Lavon Chaisson (0.5 sacks, ...

The Las Vegas Raiders defense/special teams scored six fantasy points largely by sacking Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes five times in a 19-17 loss on Friday. Pass-rush specialists Maxx Crosby and K'Lavon Chaisson were able to exploit mismatches with the Chiefs' struggling exterior offensive linemen. However, this doesn't move the needle much for the unit for the rest of 2024 in fantasy football. They still struggle to stop opposing offenses from scoring. The heavily ball-control ...

Veteran free-agent defensive end/linebacker K'Lavon Chaisson signed to the Las Vegas Raiders' practice squad on Tuesday, according to Paul Gutierrez of ESPN. The 2020 first-round pick by the Jacksonville Jaguars posted just 73 tackles, five sacks, two pass deflections, and 9.5 run stuffs in 57 career games with the Jaguars.

With Jacksonville Jaguars edge rusher Josh Allen skipping organized team activities this offseason, linebacker K'Lavon Chaisson got a lot more work, and the coaching staff noticed a difference in the 2020 first-round pick. Defensive line coach Brentson Buckner and outside linebackers coach Bill Shuey said they expect Chaisson to be one of the most improved players on the team in 2023. "I look forward to him having a big year this year," Buckner said. The 23-year-old so far only has 60 tackles ...

The Jacksonville Jaguars declined the fifth-year option for edge rusher K'Lavon Chaisson on Monday, according to a source. Chaisson now enters a contract year in 2023 with an opportunity to cash in on the open market next offseason with a big season. He played in just nine games (zero starts) for Jacksonville in 2022 due to a knee injury and finished his third year in the NFL with only 10 tackles (seven solo), one sack and two QB hits.

Jacksonville Jaguars pass-rusher K'Lavon Chaisson (knee) suffered a meniscus injury in the Week 5 loss to the Houston Texans, according to sources, and he is headed to Injured Reserve.

With the 23-year-old out for the next month-plus, the Jaguars will ask De'Shaan Dixon to step up into a bigger role on the defensive line behind pass-rushers Josh Allen and Travon Walker. In four games played so far this year, Chaisson...

Fantasy football IDP sleepers all have factors that signal a positive change in 2021. These are players you should have on your radar.

Jacksonville Jaguars defensive coordinator Todd Wash pumped the brakes on the team transitioning from a 4-3 defensive scheme to a 3-4 scheme this year. "We're not a true 3-4 or two-gap team," Wash said recently. "That's not how we're built up front or the size of our unit to do that." Versatility from the likes of Josh Allen, Yannick Ngakoue, Cassius Marsh, Aaron Lynch and K'Lavon Chaisson -- those who can play linebacker and defensive end -- will determine the team's scheme more than anything...
