Las Vegas Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak has said the franchise has shed its old "outlaw" reputation, insisting the current roster and coaching staff contain no troublemakers or bad influences. The comments come as Kubiak, newly installed as head coach, begins reshaping the team's culture alongside a fresh coaching staff, signalling a deliberate break from the swashbuckling, rebellious identity the Raiders were historically known for under previous eras of the club.

Kubiak's remarks were made amid broader discussion of the team's rebuild, which includes preparing for the upcoming NFL draft, where the Raiders hold the first-overall pick. Analysts, including Colin Cowherd, have suggested Kubiak should use that pick on Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza, with Kubiak himself noting he still has "a lot of tape to watch" before making a final decision on the franchise's next steps.
