Nakobe Dean's New Chapter: Raiders Deal

It's March 22nd.

Nakoby Dean wrapped up four years with the Philadelphia Eagles, where he helped win a Super Bowl

and became a fan favorite.

The 25-year-old linebacker just signed a three-year, $36 million deal with the Las Vegas

Raiders in Free Agency.

His move wasn't a big shock to anyone, including Dean himself or his teammates.

The Eagles drafted Jahad Campbell in the 31st spot last April, and he stepped up as a starter

during Dean's injury time.

They also locked in Zach Bond with a three-year, $51 million dollar contract, so resources

were tight at the position.

Dean broke out in his third season with 128 tackles, three sex, and key plays like an

interception in fumble recoveries across.

Fifteen starts.

A torn Pateller tendon sidelined him after the wildcard game, but he still contributed

to that Super Bowl run and came back strong the next year.

In a recent interview, Dean reflected on leaving without bitterness, staying close with

his Georgia Bulldogs brothers on the Eagles, like Nolan Smith, and Jalen Carter.

He even finalized his Raiders deal while at Smith's golf event in Savannah.

Now with Las Vegas, Dean eyes a fresh start at middle linebacker, while Campbell holds

down the four in Philly as both teams gear up for next season.
