Raiders rookie is making it well known that he doesn’t have a preference regarding the biggest question he keeps being asked
The Las Vegas Raiders drafted an extremely versatile player in Trey Zuhn, but he doesn’t have a preference in where he plays.
There was a theme among a few of the Las Vegas Raiders’ 2026 NFL Draft picks. Two of the guys in particular, Treydan Stukes and Trey Zuhn, are extremely versatile. So, the Raiders drafted guys they know can play anywhere on the field in their position group.
Literally, Stukes can play free safety, strong safety, cornerback, and slot nickel. Meanwhile, Zuhn also has experience at every single position on the offensive line from his time at Texas A&M. But if you ask him where he wants to play, he truly does not care.
“Pretty much, yeah. Play wherever they need me. Play whatever gets me on the field and, yeah, just block the guy in front of me,” Zuhn said when asked if he would play anywhere on the offensive line.
“I just want to get on the field as quickly as possible, contribute to the team, and help out the team. So, wherever they need me, that’s where I’m going to be… Any of the five. I played mostly left tackle in college, but whatever they need, I’m comfortable playing.”
Trey Zuhn could have a few different roles for the Raiders
There is a possibility that Zuhn is starting at offensive guard for the Raiders next season. They have Jackson Powers-Johnson on one side, who can’t seem to stay healthy. On the other hand, a battle between Caleb Rogers, Spencer Burford, and Jordan Meredith is likely to go down, with Zuhn having a great shot at winning it.
Or, the Raiders might see him as a possible option at right tackle. Vinny Bonsignore of the California Post shared on Twitter that Vegas likes him as a tackle prospect. They have DJ Glaze at right tackle, who led the league in blown blocks last season, and Charles Grant behind him, who had a handful of snaps.

- C – 126
- LG – 5
There are a few ways Zuhn could fit in with this team. The good thing is that he’s versatile, and he doesn’t care which way it is, as long as he’s helping them win. Zuhn allowed just ten total pressures all year on 445 pass block snaps. He’s elite in that area, but now it’s time to see if he can transfer that over against the big dogs in the NFL.
