The Las Vegas Raiders are having a tough go this season, sitting at a 1-3 record.
Head coach Josh McDaniels might be feeling a bit uneasy, with some folks suggesting he could be on the hot seat if things don’t shape up soon.
A couple of the team’s best players, wide receiver Davante Adams and running back Josh Jacobs have recently voiced their frustration
Adams dropped a hint that he’s not in the mood to twiddle his thumbs, saying, “I don’t got time to wait around,” while Jacobs went straight to the point, saying, “I’m tired of f—– of losing.”
And now adding to the mix, cornerback Marcus Peters caught social media attention by giving a “Like” to an Instagram post that called for McDaniels to be fired.
What is going on with the #Raiders??
RB Josh Jacobs and WR Davante Adams publicly air their frustrations and now CB Marcus Peters "Likes" a post on Instagram that has the caption: "Fire Josh McDaniels"
What current player on a team does that?

McDaniels has been under the microscope pretty early since taking the gig last season, and the team’s less-than-stellar performances haven’t been doing him any favors.
While a change in leadership might not be imminent, it seems that both fans and maybe some players aren’t exactly cheering McDaniels on from the sidelines.
Now, whether Peters hit that like button by accident or on purpose remains to be seen, but it certainly stirs the pot in the ongoing saga of Raiders discontent.
