The Las Vegas Raiders are set to release center Andre James as the new league year approaches. After spending six seasons with the Raiders, including four as a starter, James faced injury setbacks that cost him his position last season. Despite receiving a two-year extension prior to free agency, he will hit the open market when it begins. The team appears confident in Jackson Powers-Johnson, who filled in for James last year and has impressed with his performance at center, after transitioning from guard. Although he experienced some challenges at the position, Powers-Johnson showcased his potential as a reliable run-blocker and pass protector. The Raiders' decision to part ways with James reflects their commitment to Powers-Johnson as the long-term solution at center, which could lead to a breakout year for him in 2024.
