Gardner Minshew's performance in the recent game against the Bengals led to his replacement by Desmond Ridder. Minshew struggled throughout the game, completing only 10 of 17 passes for 124 yards without any touchdowns or interceptions. This marked his third game this season without a touchdown and his fourth game under 200 passing yards. Following this performance, questions arise about the future of the quarterback position for the Raiders, especially with a bye week approaching.
- Minshew's ineffective performance has led to his benching.
- Desmond Ridder showed some promise by leading a touchdown drive after replacing Minshew.
- The Raiders may consider a quarterback change during the upcoming bye week.
