"Also, just adding all the young guys as well, it's been great just having that depth and having guys who can play so many different spots." "I was so excited because I was like, 'Oh my gosh, we have so many weapons,'" Chinn continued. "We can attack from so many different ways, whether it's Quay [Walker], whether it's Nakobe [Dean], whether it's Maxx [Crosby], myself, Qwity [Paye], we have so many areas we can attack an offense. It makes everybody's job so much easier."Jun 9, 2026; Henderson, NV, USA; Las Vegas Raiders coach Klint Kubiak during minicamp at Intermountain Health Performance Center.

Chinn provided insight into what it's like to play for Klint Kubiak."[Klint] Kubiak has a way that he wants to see things done," Chinn said. "I feel like the competitiveness and the way we want to hold each other to a certain standard, from offense to defense, it's just a level of work that we still need to earn everything. And nothing is going to be given to us. I mean, we don't even have the shields on our helmets right now. So, everything is going to have to be earned from top to bottom, everybody."Overall TakeawaysJun 9, 2026; Henderson, NV, USA; Las Vegas Raiders quarterbacks coach Mike Sullivan (left), owner Mark Davis (center) and general manager John Spytek during minicamp at Intermountain Health Performance Center.

The front office deserves a ton of credit for what has transpired over the last few months.While center Tyler Linderbaum was the Raiders' crown jewel acquisition this offseason, the defensive side of the ball may have improved the most as a whole. As Chinn mentioned, there are a plethora of high-flying athletes on that side of the ball who should turn around a dormant defense from a year ago. For the first time in Crosby's career, it feels like he is surrounded by a legitimate supporting cast. The defense will be exciting to watch and assess this upcoming season.Add us as a preferred source on GoogleFollow
