Davante Adams has made his decision on Raiders quarterback battle as he looks for an ally on offense
Las Vegas has talent on his team yet it has not transitioned into wins
The competition for the starting quarterback job on the Las Vegas Raiders is in full swing, and the team’s star receiver Davante Adams shared his perspective on who should lead the offense.
With the recent departure of Jimmy Garoppolo and the signing of veteran Gardner Minshew, the battle centers between Minshew and Aidan O’Connell, who already has experience with the Raiders.
Since arriving in Las Vegas, Adams has played with five different quarterbacks, including Jarrett Stidham and Brian Hoyer. Now, he’s looking for stability at the quarterback position.
In a recent interview, Adams said he is keeping on eye on the battle. “There’s pros and cons, but at the end of the day, we get enough reps with both guys and we are all communicating,” Adams said, via ESPN.
“We have really open conversations, and we all get reps with all the quarterbacks . . . and I’m definitely watching at all times, seeing everything and learning how the ball comes out with Gardner versus Aidan. I got my antennas up for everything.”
The battle is entering the final chapter
Aidan O’Connell and Gardner Minshew are competing for the starting quarterback job on the Raiders. O’Connell, who started the final nine games of last season, appears to have a slight advantage due to his previous experience with the team and his time training with the starters.
