Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis is a polarizing figure, and that’s inserting it lightly. Still, it turns out there’s a timeline of occasions the place he doesn’t give up up proudly owning the Silver and Black following his father’s passing.
The Raiders, each on and off the field, have considered some turbulent times underneath Mark. The pass from Oakland to Las Vegas is nevertheless a bitter chapter in group history, at least for some fans. On the field, the crew hasn’t considered plenty success either. It’s a a ways distinction from what the legendary Al Davis experienced in the twentieth century—three Lombardi Trophies, in case you didn’t know. However, his last years were a downward spiral.
With simply a couple of years remaining in his life, the elder Davis contemplated selling the team—the controlling interest. Earlier this week, former CEO Amy Trask (a Raiders legend in her personal right) spoke up about what almost went down, courtesy of Hondo Carpenter’s podcast.

What might’ve been for the Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders?
Trask countered, however. She, ever the dependable executive, located the financing necessary to ease the transition to Mark taking the reins. Even so, we all recall that Trask resigned from the Raiders returned in 2011 amid a tumultuous relationship.

Nevertheless, what if the team goes to a distinctive proprietor or group? Does the move to Las Vegas nonetheless happen? Say what you will, however the Raiders have turn out to be one of the most precious groups below his guise. Now, we wait to see if 2024 will be the commencing of on-the-field results.
