When it rains, it pours.

More trouble for the  Las Vegas Raiders, as the latest report suggests another person was injured as a result of a Raiders player behind the wheel.

Former 1st-round Raiders pick Damon Arnette is being accused of injuring a woman in a violent car crash last year.

Via TMZ:

“It’s all spelled out in a new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ Sports, in which a woman says on Oct. 14, 2020 … Arnette slammed into her car with his vehicle at around 7:29 AM in Las Vegas.

The woman says in the docs that Arnette — who was taken by Vegas 7 picks after the Raiders took Henry Ruggs in April 2020’s NFL Draft — thought he had missed his turn into the Raiders’ facility, so he swerved at around 65 MPH in order to still make the right.

The woman says the driver’s side of his car hit her driver’s side violently … causing significant damage to both rides.

the woman claims Arnette “illegally left the scene of the crash” afterward and headed toward the Raiders’ headquarters just feet away.

The woman in the docs says she suffered several injuries in the accident — including head trauma, and is now dealing with shoulder, neck and back pain as well as depression and panic attacks.

She says she suffered damages exceeding $92,000.”

Arnette hasn’t played much for the Raiders this season. He was cited for failure to maintain travel lane as well as duty to stop a property damage accident.

The Raiders have had a brutal season away from the field.

Somehow in spite of all the craziness, they are sitting atop the AFC West at 5-2.
