Raiders' Gardner Minshew: Slated to play a quarter Saturday
Coach Antonio Pierce indicated Monday that he expects both Minshew and Aidan O'Connell to play "a legit quarter" in Saturday's preseason opener against the Vikings, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.
While both QBs are on track to see work Saturday, Pierce didn't reveal who'll take the first snaps against Minnesota. Though there's been some speculation of late that Minshew has a slight upper hand in the Raiders' signal-caller battle, for his part Pierce notes via Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com that he doesn't think "we can sit there and say somebody's won yet." With the ongoing competition in mind ahead of Saturday's contest, Pierce said, "Who goes out first and who goes out second really doesn't matter. [They will] get hopefully an equal amount of snaps and opportunity to showcase."
