Hezekiah Masses Emerges As Unsung Hero in Raiders' 2-0 Start

Las Vegas Raiders rookie cornerback Hezekiah Masses is drawing praise as a key unsung hero in the team's surprising 2-0 start under new head coach Klint Kubiak. A 2026 fifth-round draft pick, Masses has significantly outperformed his draft slot, highlighted by a standout performance where he intercepted Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert twice. His opportunistic play in the secondary has helped propel the rebuilt Raiders defense and elevate the team in early NFL Power Rankings.
