What happened: Las Vegas heads back to Los Angeles for its Week 2 game one week into the 2026 regular season. The trip lands in the middle of a busy September stretch that has already included roster movement and a Wednesday injury report.

Why it matters: The first road spot is an early measuring stick for the Raiders as September decisions start to shape the active roster. A steady outing away from home would help settle a team still sorting through availability and depth.

What to watch: Watch the final injury designations and any late roster moves before kickoff in Los Angeles. Week 2 should offer a clearer read on how settled Las Vegas looks away from home.
