Pola-Mao is set to transition into a starting role at safety following the season-ending injury suffered by Marcus Epps (knee), beginning with Sunday's game against the Browns, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports. Pola-Mao, a 2022 UDFA out of USC, is entering Year 3 with the Raiders and suited up for 16 regular-season games with the team in 2023, albeit while mostly contributing on special teams. He played more than 50 percent of defensive snaps just once last season, Week 11 versus Miami, and racked up seven tackles (four solo), one interception and one pass defensed in that contest.

Pola-Mao is set to transition into a starting role at safety following the season-ending injury suffered by Marcus Epps (knee), beginning with Sunday's game against the Browns, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports. Pola-Mao, a 2022 UDFA out of USC, is entering Year 3 with the Raiders and suited up for 16 regular-season games with the team in 2023, albeit while mostly contributing on special teams. He played more than 50 percent of defensive snaps just once last season, Week 11 versus Miami, and racked up seven tackles (four solo), one interception and one pass defensed in that contest.
The Raiders re-signed Pola-Mao on Thursday. Pola-Mao has been a significant contributor on special teams for his first two seasons in the league. He also managed the first pick of his career in 2023, though he's not likely to see many defensive snaps in 2024.
