Back to EpisodesRaiders Seek QB Backup, Top Names Include Cousins, Taylor
Description
The Las Vegas Raiders, with a new quarterback in the pipeline, urgently need a reliable backup for the season. After trading Geno Smith and losing Kenny Pickett to free agency, Aidan O’Connell remains the only backup, but his spot is uncertain. General manager John Spytek emphasizes the importance of this position for early-season stability. Top quarterback options include Kirk Cousins, Tyrod Taylor, Brandon Allen, Cooper Rush, Russell Wilson, and Jimmy Garoppolo, though the latter just signed with the Bengals. With training camp approaching, the Raiders must secure a bridge quarterback soon to avoid starting from scratch.
