Josh Rosen's 'toughness is not in question,' but avoiding injury can prove potential

Raiders coach Jon Gruden has gotten a lot of things wrong this season, but he’s right about Cardinals rookie quarterback Josh Rosen.

“I like Rosen because he’s tough,” Gruden said. “I think he got hurt in that Denver game. I remember seeing him walking around in a boot, and he played the next week. I like what he did in Arrowhead Stadium, getting the kickoff and showing some pizzazz. (Also) bringing the team back to beat the 49ers, it was a great drive after some tough quarters, some tough moments. He’s showing a lot of mental and physical toughness.
