Raiders Sticking With Gardner Minshew For Now

The Raiders are sticking with QB Gardner Minshew as their starter, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Minshew was benched in the fourth quarter of Sunday's loss to the Panthers after producing just 15 points against a defense that had struggled mightily over the first two weeks. We'll see if Minshew can survive a much tougher Week 4 matchup against the Browns. He's not even a recommended QB2 starter for that one -- and we still expect to see QB Aidan O'Connell at some point this season.
