Gardner Minshew has stepped in as the starting quarterback for the Las Vegas Raiders following an injury to Aidan O'Connell, who left the game against the Los Angeles Rams with a suspected broken thumb. O'Connell's injury occurred after a hit from Rams safety Kamren Curl during a pass attempt.
Minshew, who had previously been benched in favor of O'Connell, now takes over as the Raiders struggle at 2-4 in the AFC West.
