The Las Vegas Raiders signed quarterback Jacob Clark as an undrafted free agent.

Let's take a closer look at Clark:

Size:

6-5, 220 pounds.

College:

Missouri State.

College highlights:

He was a small-school standout after transferring from Minnesota early in his college career. He was a Walter Payton Award (which goes to the best small-school player in the country) in 2024 and he was American Bowl MVP in 2025.

How he will fit in with Raiders:

Clark, of course, is no the rookie quarterback the Raiders are most focused on -- that's all No. 1 overall draft pick Fernando Mendoza. But that doesn't mean the Raiders don't have plans for Clark. He is a big, strong quarterback who has a chance to stick around the program. The best case scenario for Clark in 2026 is for him to be the No. 3 quarterback on the 53-man roster, thus beating out veteran Aidan O'Connell for the job. Still, even if O'Connell is kept in Las Vegas, the Raiders could find room for Clark on the practice squad as they continue to develop him.
