The NFL will also take away a 2021 sixth-round draft pick from the Raiders after the league determined that offensive lineman Trent Brown and other players violated COVID-19 guidelines passed down by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
The Raiders have not commented on the report. These are by far the harshest penalties handed down by the NFL surpassing the $350,000 fine that the league handed to the Tennessee Titans back in October for violating protocols.
