Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
The 2020 first-rounder recorded just 25 tackles (21 solo) and two passes defensed in nine games during his rookie campaign, also missing Weeks 4-9 due to a thumb injury that required surgery. The Raiders added veteran Casey Hayward to the secondary this offseason, so Arnette no longer has the inside track to a starting role at cornerback opposite Trayvon Mullen.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Returning to NFL
Arnette, a 2020 first-round pick of the Raiders, signed a one-year deal with the Texans on Wednesday following a successful stint in the UFL, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The veteran cornerback played in only 13 regular-season games for Las Vegas over the 2020 and 2021 campaigns before being released after multiple legal problems surfaced. Arnette was entangled in several more off-field issues after that point, but he managed to play and stand out through the entire 2025 UFL campaign with the Houston Roughnecks, which also afforded Texans scouts an up-close look at his current level of play.
