Some of his colleagues have previously called Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis “cash poor” and one of the weakest owners in the current NFL.
Although the organization has always struggled with money, there has been conjecture recently that this may have contributed to the franchise’s limited NFL free agency activity.
In recent years, Davis has blown astronomical sums of money on head coaches and general managers who were fired. Midway through the 2023 NFL season, Davis parted ways with general manager Dave Ziegler and coach Josh McDaniels.

It was then claimed that Davis owed the recently sacked Raiders organization around $90 million.
Nevertheless, Davis is spending more money on team employees than just that. After head coach Jon Gruden resigned during the 2023 season, the Raiders owner came to an unknown sum of money in October 2023.
As recently as 2023, a former Raiders employee described the severe financial and cultural problems.
All of this has contributed to the perception of Davis that he is not as able to invest in the club as other of the NFL’s wealthiest owners.
