Raiders News: Ha Ha Clinton-Dix Visits Las Vegas Ahead Of NFL Free Agency

The primary goal for the Las Vegas Raiders during this NFL offseason is upgrading as many aspects of the team’s defense as possible. Veteran safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix could be part of the Raiders’ plans once NFL free agency gets underway.

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com, Clinton-Dix visited with the Raiders on Friday.

After spending the first few years of his career with the Green Bay Packers following being drafted with the 21st pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, Clinton-Dix has bounced around the league a bit. He’s played for the Chicago Bears, Washington Redskins and was released by the Dallas Cowboys one week before the start of the 2020 campaign.

Clinton-Dix didn’t play a single down in the NFL last year and intends on continuing his football journey in 2021. His best season was in 2016 when he was named a Pro Bowler while with the Packers.

In 96 games during his NFL career thus far, Clinton-Dix recorded 417 solo tackles, 5.5 sacks and 16 interceptions to go along with 212 yards and a touchdown.

Although the Raiders brass will definitely be doing its due diligence during NFL free agency, Las Vegas might get a steal with a hungry Clinton-Dix. The 28-year-old will be looking to prove his worth after missing the 2020 season and could come at a discount.

It’ll be interesting to see how many players will be playing the Raiders a visit before agreeing to a deal. Clinton-Dix joins A.J. Bouye as notable names on the defensive side of the football to visit the team thus far.
