Recently, Raiders’ reserve quarterback Aidan O’Connell, practice-squad offensive lineman Dalton Wagner, and former standout running back Darren McFadden represented the organization as they host more than 100 military members from Nellis and Creech Air Force Bases in Nevada, in USAA’s Salute to Service NFL Boot camp.

The Raiders have a great relationship with the military and this is another great way of showing support during a special time of year.
