Saturday was a good day for the Las Vegas Raiders’ quarterbacks.
Head coach Antonio Pierce wanted to see either incumbent Aidan O’Connell or free-agent addition Gardner Minshew step up in the preseason opener at the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday. And both O’Connell and Minshew delivered.
After both had been lackluster during 11 days of training-camp practices in Costa Mesa, California, both O’Connell and Minshew performed well Saturday.
So, the battle marches on and may not be decided after the final two preseason games.
