## Resource

The Las Vegas Raiders are preparing for a challenging 2026 season by participating in joint practices with the Houston Texans, a top-tier team coming off a strong season with the leagues best defense. This opportunity, first reported by Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle, will provide the Raiders, particularly rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza, with valuable reps against elite competition. The practices, scheduled before their preseason game on August twentieth, will offer a different challenge than their other exhibition games against the Arizona Cardinals and San Francisco 49ers. The goal is growth, with both coaches, Klint Kubiak and DeMeco Ryans, sharing a coaching tree, ensuring a competitive and developmental environment.
