Raiders RB Sincere McCormick ready to take advantage of his opportunity and run with it
New York TimesHENDERSON, Nev. — Running back Sincere McCormick signed with the Las Vegas Raiders as an undrafted free agent in May 2022, but he wouldn’t get much time to prove himself. In a season in which the 2-10 Raiders have fielded one of the most inefficient rushing attacks in recent memory — they’re last in the league in rushing yards per game — it’s hard to find a reason McCormick shouldn’t be taking over as the lead back against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. pic.twitter.com/4G0LnJY7MP — Las Vegas Raiders December 3, 2024 “It’s a growth mindset,” McCormick, now 24, said Wednesday when asked to reflect on his journey. “To just see my journey and how much I grew from that, it’s amazing.” McCormick was healthy going into the 2023 season but was stuck in a crowded backfield led by All-Pro Josh Jacobs.
