The 2019 Oakland Raiders season will be the 60th overall season of the Oakland Raiders franchise, the franchise's 50th season in the National Football League and their second under head coach Jon Gruden since his rehiring by the organization (sixth overall).

After initially stating they would not return to the Oakland–Alameda County Coliseum for 2019, the Raiders were effectively forced to return to the stadium after their regional rivals, the San Francisco 49ers, blocked an effort to play at Oracle Park while they await the completion of Las Vegas Stadium in Paradise, Nevada. Assuming Las Vegas Stadium is in a usable state by 2020, this will be the 25th and final season in the team's second tenure in Oakland.

Prior to the season, the Raiders hired former NFL Network draft guru and former NBC's Notre Dame Football color commentator Mike Mayock as general manager.

Stadium negotiations

In December 2018, the Raiders indicated they would not return to the Oakland–Alameda County Coliseum upon the expiration of its lease on the stadium after the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Authority filed a lawsuit against the team, seeking financial damages, and would be seeking another venue for the 2019 season. The Raiders then began negotiating a lease with Oracle Park in San Francisco in February 2019,^[2] however, the San Francisco 49ers refused to waive their territorial rights, effectively vetoing the deal.^[3] The team briefly negotiated for sharing Levi's Stadium with the 49ers, but the proposal for reportedly rejected for costing more than the Coliseum's asking price.^[4]

Unlike the case of the Tennessee Titans, in which the team played in Memphis' Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium for 1997 and Nashville's Vanderbilt Stadium for 1998 until their new stadium was completed in 1999, the state of Nevada's two largest college stadiums, Mackay Stadium in Reno and Sam Boyd Stadium in Whitney, were either rejected or never considered.^[4]

On February 25, 2019, the Raiders reached an agreement in principle with the Coliseum Authority to return to the Coliseum for at least the 2019 season. Rent for the 2019 season is expected to cost the team $7.5 million, and rent for the 2020 season would increase to $10.5 million if the option is invoked due to construction delays to the Las Vegas Stadium; the option for the 2020 season would have to exercised by April 1, 2020.^[5][1] As part of the lease agreement, the Raiders will not receive naming rights revenue should the Coliseum Authority sell naming rights for the Coliseum, and game-day expenses for the Coliseum Authority would also be capped.^[6] On March 15, 2019, the Coliseum Authority voted to approve the lease, while the Alameda County Board of Supervisors and Oakland City Council voted in favor of the lease on March 19 and 21, respectively, clearing all legal hurdles in time for the NFL's owners meetings on March 24.^[7]

Current roster

Preseason

The Raiders' preseason opponents and schedule will be announced in the spring. On March 27, Green Bay Packers President Mark H. Murphy stated during the league owners' meetings that the Packers and Raiders were in negotiations to play a preseason game August 23 at Investors Group Field in Winnipeg, Manitoba, with the Raiders as the designated home team.^[13] Mosaic Stadium in Regina, Saskatchewan was another potential site for the game, and the teams secured the cooperation of the city and local sports promoter On Ice Management, but the Saskatchewan Roughriders vetoed the proposal; the Roughriders feared they would be unable to reconfigure the field from NFL to CFL standards in time for the Roughriders' August 24 home game.^[14]
