Aidan O'Connell Headshot

The Raiders are preparing QB Aidan O'Connell to start Friday's game vs. the Chiefs, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. O'Connell is working back from a broken thumb, returning to practice on Monday and taking the first-team reps, per Pelissero. The second-year QB threw for 227 yards, one TD, and one INT vs. Pittsburgh in his only full game this season. TE Brock Bowers caught nine of 10 targets for 71 yards in that one. (WR Jakobi Meyers did not play.) We're not considering O'Connell an upgrade or downgrade from QB Gardner Minshew or QB Desmond Ridder.
