Mendoza’s Final Push for Starting Job | NFL News
Description
Raiders rookie QB Fernando Mendoza showed flashes of promise in his second preseason game, throwing for 86 yards and one interception while impressing head coach Klint Kubiak with his preparation and poise under pressure. Kubiak praised Mendoza’s performance on third downs and his ability to make plays when the defense was closing in, calling it a solid showing despite the team’s overall struggles. With just one more preseason game left before Week One, Mendoza’s final chance to outshine veteran Kirk Cousins looms — and the Raiders are also pushing for major stadium upgrades, requesting funding for a new entrance project.
