  • Raiders' Aidan O'Connell: Misses Thursday's practice

    O'Connell didn't practice Thursday due to an illness.

    O'Connell practiced fully Wednesday, but his absence a day later makes his status for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers worth tracking. Friday's injury report will reveal whether there's any chance that the illness that sidelined O'Connell on Thursday could affect his Week 14 availability. Desmond Ridder is the Raiders' backup quarterback and would presumably start in the event O'Connell isn't healthy enough to do so Sunday.

  • Raiders' Aidan O'Connell: Strong game marred by miscue

    O'Connell completed 23 of 35 passes for 340 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions and netted no gain on one rush in the Raiders' 19-17 loss to the Chiefs on Friday. He also lost a fumble.

    Seeing his first action since Week 7 due to a thumb injury, O'Connell arguably outplayed Patrick Mahomes but still saw the Raiders come up short partly through his own doing. O'Connell's passing yardage total was easily a new career high, and his multi-touchdown tally, which consisted of second-half scoring tosses to Brock Bowers (33 yards) and Tre Tucker (58 yards), was his first of the 2024 season. The second-year signal-caller also spread the ball around to seven different targets, but he wasn't ready for a shotgun snap with 15 seconds remaining at the Chiefs' 38-yard line and saw the ball eventually end up in the hands of Kansas City's Nick Bolton for a game-ending turnover. Despite the heartbreaking finish, O'Connell's overall performance and his chemistry with Bowers (10-140-1) was particularly encouraging, and he therefore carries a bright fantasy outlook into a Week 14 road interconference clash against the Buccaneers on Sunday, Dec. 8.

  • Raiders' Aidan O'Connell: Officially activated off IR

    O'Connell (thumb) was activated off injured reserve Thursday ahead of Friday's game against the Chiefs.

    O'Connell's activation corresponds with fellow quarterback Gardner Minshew (collarbone) landing on IR. O'Connell was deemed a full participant on the Raiders' injury report Tuesday through Thursday and heads into Friday without a designation, lining him up to start against Kansas City. Prior to hurting his thumb, O'Connell had completed 52 of 82 passes for 455 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions over four games.

  • Raiders' Aidan O'Connell: Named Week 13 starter

    Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce said Wednesday that O'Connell (thumb) will start Friday's game at Kansas City, Levi Edwards of the Raiders' official site reports.

    The Raiders listed O'Connell as a full practice participant Tuesday, one day after designating him from return from injured reserve. Las Vegas apparently plans to activate him from IR before Friday's game and put him back in the starting role. O'Connell took the job from Gardner Minshew (collarbone) going into Week 6, but then suffered a fractured thumb on his throwing hand in his second start in Week 7. Minshew has started each subsequent game, with Desmond Ridder subbing in a couple of times, including this past Sunday against Denver when Minshew suffered a season-ending injury.

  • Raiders' Aidan O'Connell: Deemed full participant in practice

    O'Connell was estimated as a full participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    The wheels were set in motion for O'Connell to return from a four-game absence when Las Vegas designated him to return from injured reserve Monday, and the second-year quarterback now appears likely to start Friday against Kansas City after opening Week 13 prep as a full participant. Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reported earlier Tuesday that O'Connell took first-team reps during a walkthrough Monday, suggesting that the Purdue product will be the Raiders' preferred option ahead of Desmond Ridder with Gardner Minshew (collarbone) out for the season. O'Connell will need to be activated off IR before he can be confirmed for the Week 13 start, but everything points to that transaction taking place.
