Spillane is referenced as part of the Raiders’ evolving defensive path, drawing a parallel to Roberts’ experience of learning Graham’s system, and providing a veteran counterpoint to the younger corps.

Robert Spillane, previously a linebacker for the Pittsburgh Steelers, is now with the Las Vegas Raiders after a contract expiration with Pittsburgh. He was a fan favorite but was surprised by the Steelers' decision not to renew his contract. His move to the Raiders marks a new chapter in his career where he will aim to prove himself again.

Robert Spillane, another recent acquisition, adds depth and experience to the Patriots' linebacker group, enhancing their defensive strategy.

Spillane is seen as a culture-building signing for the Patriots, enhancing their linebacker corps with his tackling ability and leadership, crucial for the new identity under Terrell Williams.

Robert Spillane has joined the New England Patriots, adding to the Raider's defensive woes this offseason. His experience and skills will be missed in Las Vegas.
