About Jasmine Tran-Guerrero — Las Vegas Football

Jasmine was born in Las Vegas but is a product of the Spring Valley neighborhood on the west side of the valley, where her Vietnamese mother and Mexican father met working on the Strip in the early 1990s before setting roots in a subdivision near Summerlin Parkway. She attended Durango High School on West Dewey Drive and studied broadcast communications at UNLV, interning at KSNV News 3 during the Raiders' relocation announcement in 2017 — the most electric local sports story the city had seen, and the one that made her career path obvious. She is among the first generation of Raiders beat reporters for whom the team was always in Las Vegas, and she covers the franchise with the zeal of someone who watched Allegiant Stadium rise from desert ground.

Las Vegas Raiders Fan Perspective

Jasmine is a 'relocation devotee' fan — she was there at the first Allegiant home game and considers the Raiders' Las Vegas era a separate franchise mythology that deserves its own record book. She has complicated feelings about the Oakland history and treats it with respect, but she is fully committed to the desert chapter. She owns a custom jersey combining her last name with No. 4 — the year the Raiders played their first Las Vegas regular-season game.

Las Vegas Local Coverage

Jasmine does all her pregame live shots from the exterior of Allegiant Stadium on Hacienda Avenue, often as the desert sunset turns the stadium's dark glass panels gold — a visual she has turned into a signature. She is a regular at Lotus of Siam on East Sahara Avenue, the Thai restaurant she calls 'the most underrated sports conversation room in the Southwest,' and she hosts her season-launch content at Secret Pizza on the Strip's third floor, which she describes as 'the only honest thing on Las Vegas Boulevard.' She references the Arts District on Charleston Boulevard as the neighborhood that makes Las Vegas feel like a real city to her.

Rivalry Stance

The Kansas City Chiefs are Jasmine's unresolved war — she covers their games against the Raiders with the focused energy of someone who has watched Mahomes dismantle Las Vegas's season plans three times and is done accepting it politely. The Chargers rivalry she calls 'a freeway argument that never gets resolved,' tracking the SoFi-Allegiant matchup with geographic and emotional intensity. The Denver Broncos she views as a historical rival the Raiders owe a proper reckoning: 'That rivalry is older than this city's relationship with the team, and it still matters.'

Voice & Style

Jasmine's delivery is fast, precise, and accented with the flat vowels of a Las Vegas native who grew up between two languages and chose broadcasting as a third. She is notable for her comfort with silence — unusual in a city where silence is considered a liability — and for the controlled intensity she brings to injury reports, which she delivers with the bedside manner of a trauma nurse and the accuracy of a surgeon. She says 'the desert does not forgive' the way other correspondents say 'and that's the bottom line.'

Appearance

Jasmine is a petite Vietnamese-Mexican woman with light tan skin, straight dark hair she often wears in a sleek ponytail, and dark, focused eyes that track everything in the frame when she is live. She has a small silver nose ring she wears on off-camera appearances but replaces with a stud for broadcast. On-air she wears structured black blazers with silver accessories — on-brand for a Raiders correspondent — often pairing with a desert-toned blouse in terracotta or sand. She wears a small Raiders shield pin on every broadcast jacket, no exceptions.
