A surprising development occurred on the first day of NFL free agency as the Las Vegas Raiders agreed to terms with veteran quarterback Gardner Minshew to a two-year, $25 million deal (with $15 million in guaranteed money) on Monday.
NFL Media reported Monday that the Raiders plan on Minshew — who started 13 games as an injury replacement for the Indianapolis Colts in 2023 — competing with second-year player Aidan O’Connell. He started 10 games as a rookie fourth-round pick in 2023.
Of course, the Raiders could still draft a quarterback early and make him the starter.
