Raiders Safety Tre’von Moehrig Poised for Major Pay Raise

Las Vegas, NV — Tre'von Moehrig, safety for the Las Vegas Raiders, is expected to secure a substantial pay raise as the NFL free agency tampering period commences on Monday. Moehrig, 25, has demonstrated significant improvement in his performance, particularly during the 2024 season.

Initially selected during Jon Gruden‘s tenure, Moehrig showed promise in his rookie year but struggled to meet expectations in subsequent seasons. However, a shift closer to the line of scrimmage last year allowed him to capitalize on his versatility, contributing notably in blitzing and run defense.

With free agency approaching, there is considerable interest across the league regarding Moehrig’s market value. James Palmer, a sports broadcaster, stated, “Some believe he could be a player that ends up cashing in above what was expected.” Palmer highlighted Moehrig’s development and potential for a lucrative contract as teams seek reliable safeties.

John Spytek, the Raiders’ general manager, has been active this week, trading for quarterback Geno Smith and retaining defensive tackle Adam Butler with a new contract. Maintaining Moehrig, a homegrown talent, would demonstrate the team’s commitment to fostering internal development while instilling confidence among fans.

The Raiders are still weighing their financial options, as Moehrig’s expected salary may exceed their budget. The coming days will be crucial as Spytek decides whether to prioritize Moehrig in the team’s future plans.
