## Resource

The Raiders drafted Fernando Mendoza first overall, but he wont start immediately. Veteran Kirk Cousins is expected to lead the team, giving Mendoza time to learn. The plan is to keep Mendoza on the bench until December, if at all, due to a tough November schedule and a potential playoff push with Cousins. However, the NFLs unpredictability could force a change, and the team might keep a third quarterback, further delaying Mendozas debut. The Raiders are prioritizing Mendozas development, but the exact timeline remains uncertain. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
