Raiders Rumors: LV 'Leaning Toward' Aidan O'Connell as QB1 vs. Giants over Garoppolo

Following the firing of head coach Josh McDaniels and general manager Dave Ziegler early Wednesday morning, the Las Vegas Raiders reportedly may be making a quarterback change as well.

According to Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the Raiders are "leaning toward" starting rookie fourth-round pick Aidan O'Connell over veteran Jimmy Garoppolo against the New York Giants on Sunday.

If the Raiders go through with the move, it will mark O'Connell's second career start, as he previously started Vegas' 24-17 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 4.
