The linchpin to the Raiders' rebuilding process under coach Jon Gruden are the team’s three first-round picks from 2019SEPTEMBER 14, 2020 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
DAMON ARNETTE
Notches five tackles in NFL debut Arnette recorded five tackles (three solo) and one pass defensed in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Panthers.
Impact Rebounding from a broken thumb suffered late in training camp, Arnette earned the start at cornerback in his NFL debut across from Trayvon Mullen. Arnette got burned on what turned into a 75-yard touchdown catch for Panthers receiver Robby Anderson, but the former otherwise appeared competent enough to retain the starting role heading into a Week 2 contest against the Saints.

Managing broken thumb Arnette was seen with a soft cast during Wednesday's practice after he suffered a fracture in his thumb, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact The 2020 first-round pick is no stranger to playing through injury, as he played through the entire 2019 collegiate season for Ohio State with a broken right wrist. Arnette was seen in high spirits during practice Wednesday, and appears ready to play through the injury, per Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal. It's still too early to tell if the injury will force him to miss Week 1 of the regular season.
