News about Aidan O'Connell

It seems like the two interceptions that Gardner Minshew threw on Sunday weren't the only things being 'picked'. After a disastrous day for the Las Vegas Raiders quarterback, he was benched for backup Aidan O'Connell in the team's 34-18 loss to the divisional rival Denver Broncos. Minshew was relegated to wearing a headset for the remainder of the game, but late in the fourth quarter, cameras caught the quarterback at an inopportune time.

One of the NFL's coaches is considering a quarterback change after a shocking loss over the weekend. The margin was not close as his side fell to a lesser opposition on paper. The 36-22 defeat in the hands of a 0-2 team may push the head coach to dig into his depth chart for Week 4.

Gardner Minshew has committed to a two-year contract with the Las Vegas Cowboys, and he is set to compete against Aidan O'Connell to be the team's starting quarterback. Minshew has signed a two-year contract with the Oakland Raiders, who also have Jimmy Garoppolo on the roster. This will be Minshew's fourth NFL team, although he does not appear to have a long career as the starter for one team.

Although Wilson isn't officially a free agent until Wednesday, the Broncos have given him permission to speak with other teams, and Wilson seems to be enjoying it fully as he spoke to new Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith 'for hours' during his Pittsburgh meeting on Friday, according to CBS Sports' NFL Insider Josina Anderson.

Following Brandon Staley's historic loss to the Raiders on Thursday, the Los Angeles Chargers have fired both head coach Brandon Staley and general manager Tom Telesco. Las Vegas defeated the Chargers 63-21, giving them the most points in the franchise's history. The Chargers are now 5-9 and bottom of the AFC West, with a dreadful result that has been announced by ESPN.
