**Las Vegas, NV** – The Las Vegas Raiders are facing questions about their quarterback situation after a disappointing 36-22 home loss to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Head Coach Antonio Pierce made a late-game switch from veteran Gardner Minshew to rookie Aidan O’Connell, but the change failed to spark a comeback.
While Pierce claimed he was looking for a spark, he refused to commit to Minshew remaining the starter for Week 4, suggesting the team would need to further evaluate Sunday’s performance. However, NFL Network later reported the Raiders will stick with Minshew for now.
Minshew, signed to a two-year, $25 million contract in the offseason, started the game and finished with 214 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. O’Connell, a 2023 fourth-round draft pick, went 9-for-12 for 82 yards and a touchdown in the final drive.
The Raiders, now 1-2 on the season, face a tough challenge in Week 4 against the Cleveland Browns. With the quarterback situation still uncertain, the focus shifts to finding a way to secure their second win of the season.
