The Raiders released Cappa on Friday. Cappa will not return to Las Vegas for 2026 despite signing a two-year, $11.02 million contract with the Raiders in March of 2025. He started in eight of 17 regular-season games for the Raiders last year, including the last six games of the campaign. The 2018 third-rounder should garner interest from teams looking to add depth to the offensive line.

Alex Cappa: Breaking News
Cappa (rib) was active for Saturday's 20-10 preseason loss to the Cardinals. Cappa returned to action for the first time during the preseason, playing 12 offensive snaps in the contest. The offensive guard appears to have moved past his rib injury, and he's all set to operate as a top reserve option with Las Vegas in 2025.
Cappa (rib) did not practice Sunday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports. Cappa didn't play in Thursday's preseason opener against the Seahawks. Coach Pete Carroll said Sunday that it's not believed to be a long-term issue for the veteran guard, according to Tashan Reed of The Athletic. Cappa is in the mix to open the season as a starter on the interior of Las Vegas' offensive line.
