Malik Benson continues to flash. Aside from the Nailor TD, he had the highlight of practice: a leaping, acrobatic grab over Darien Porter on the left sideline. Worked with 1s, 2s and 3s today. A guy to watch in Thursday’s preseason opener.NegativeNewsAug 10, 2026

Malik Benson was WR2 with Nailor not participating. Kubiak didn’t seem concerned with Nailor’s absence or Thornton leaving practice early. “Jalen is OK. We had a few guys nicked up and we're trying to be cautious,” said Kubiak.PositiveValueAug 7, 2026
#Raiders TE Michael Mayer was really complementary of rookie WR Malik Benson Mayer said when he’s inline and sees Malik outside he knows he can trust him. High praises for a 6th round rookie.PositiveUsageAug 6, 2026

The Raiders WR room continues to struggle at training camp... Tre Tucker & Jalen Nailor have been what I've expected so far + Malik Benson has been a sleeper all offseason Jack Bech hasn't flashed like a 2nd round pick & Dont'e Thornton Jr. is at risk of not making the team. Bottom line: This is one of the worst WR rooms in the NFL & I think the @Raiders should do something about itPositiveNewsAug 4, 2026
Takeaways from day 2 in pads for the #Raiders - WRs had a solid day… Tre, Nailor, & Benson stood out - OL/DL 1-on-1s… good work from Kolton, Zuhn, Tonka, JJ, & Keyron We’ll dive into it all on the pod later this afternoon ⬇️ <https://youtube.com/@>silverandblacksportsnetwork?si=EEQpU39X-v4qNZbsPositiveNewsAug 3, 2026
Rookie Malik Benson has flashed at times in the offseason and early on in camp. With the pads on he’s a guy to keep an eye on to see if that continues. #RaidersPositiveNewsAug 2, 2026
#Raiders just finished practice. Wasn’t the prettiest day for the offense. Here are a few takeaways: - Cousins connected with Bowers on a few big plays.

Fernando Mendoza drops a dime to Malik Benson in the end zone 👀🔥🏴☠️ #raidernationPositiveNewsJul 30, 2026
The #Raiders WR core is full of a lot of guys with a lot to prove. It feels like it’s Tre Tucker, Jalen Nailor, and everyone else… but can Bech, Thornton Jr. and/or Benson step up as a dependable No. 3?
