## Resource

The Las Vegas Raiders shocked fans by starting veteran Kirk Cousins over Heisman-winning rookie Fernando Mendoza in 2026, sparking debate about whether Mendoza should get reps now or wait. Insider Vincent Bonsignore argues that unless the Raiders are playoff contenders, Mendoza must play this year—citing recent top QBs who thrived early and reached Super Bowls. With a modest schedule and no clear path to contention, some say Mendoza should’ve started day one. The season kicks off Sept. 13 against Miami—watch how this QB battle unfolds.
