Aidan O'Connell has shown potential as the Las Vegas Raiders' quarterback, especially following a solid rookie season where he helped the team win five of their last nine games. Despite not turning the ball over in the final four games and throwing eight touchdowns, the Raiders pursued an upgrade at quarterback, leading to the acquisition of Geno Smith. Smith is expected to start while O'Connell's future with the team appears uncertain, especially with plans to draft a quarterback. With Smith's addition, O'Connell's role could shift to that of an emergency backup, raising questions about his long-term prospects in Las Vegas.
