Wideout Keelan Doss will be a Raider in 2020 as well. Doss, who gained prominence for his appearance on HBO’s Hard Knocks, signed exclusive rights tender with Las Vegas Raider to remain with the organization through this season.

Doss played 14 games in 2019 but was primarily used as a backup.  He finished the year with 11 receptions for 133 yards.

The 24-year-old will face a tough competition to advance on the depth chart, however, especially since Raiders focused on WR position in this year’s draft. They spent 10th overall pick on Alabama’s Henry Ruggs, and pair of third-round picks on Kentucky’s Lynn Bowden and South Carolina’s  Bryan Edwards.

Keelan Doss first joined Raiders as an undrafted free agent out of UC Davis in April 2019. His time at the team was documented on Hard Knocks, and he quickly became a fan favorite. However, Doss was waived during the final roster cuts and was later signed to the Jacksonville Jaguars’ practice squad.

Raiders decided to bring back Doss a week later after they released star wide receiver Antonio Brown.
