Schefter stated, “There is not a strong trade market right now. I think the Raiders still would like to trade him…This is very unsettled, there’s a lot of ways it could go. We’ll see how it shakes out.”
Benching Gardner Minshew for Aidan O’Connell appeared like a transfer made to see if O’Connell may very well be the long-term resolution, but it surely wasn’t initially believed to be one thing accomplished to appease Adams.
O’Connell performed 11 video games final 12 months and excelled down the stretch, which was highlighted by the workforce successful three of its final 4 video games that included O’Connell throwing eight touchdowns with no interceptions.
Minshew has confirmed to be a strong QB in his profession, however he ideally profiles as an amazing backup greater than a superb starter.
