Las Vegas Raiders aren’t getting enough from Tyler Linderbaum, especially in Week 6 loss to Buffalo Bills

The Las Vegas Raiders have hit a rough patch, dropping three consecutive contests after an initial 3-0 start to their 2026 campaign. Despite remaining competitive in a narrow defeat against the Buffalo Bills, the team is facing scrutiny over high-priced acquisitions.

Center Tyler Linderbaum struggled significantly against Buffalo defensive tackle Deone Walker, recording a season-low performance grade and admitting he failed to meet expectations. Linderbaum, currently the highest-paid player at his position, has struggled to anchor the offensive line as intended, further compounded by a costly penalty during a short-yardage attempt.

Meanwhile, linebacker Quay Walker continues to be a liability in pass coverage, surrendering six completions on as many targets for 76 yards and a score. On a brighter note, rookie Treydan Stukes provided a defensive spark, recording nine tackles and three stops to earn a career-best run defense grade.
