Somehow, someway, the Oakland Raiders are suddenly the NFL’s most well-behaved team, the only team in the NFL to have no players arrested in the past three years.

The charges were later dropped and Sheets got injured in camp and never played a down for the Raiders.
The discipline could be attributed to the leadership of head coach Jack Del Rio who took over in 2015 or the overall turn around of the team from a perennial loser to a playoff contender.
Oakland’s neighbors, the San Francisco 49ers happen to lead to league with 15 arrests in the same time span.
