The Raiders have named Gardner Minshew as their starting quarterback.

Fantasy Impact:

Head coach Antonio Pierce made the announcement Sunday after a camp battle between Minshew and Aidan O’Connell. It was a close battle all the way through. Both threw for just under 100 yards Saturday against the Cowboys. In the end, the veteran wins out. The Raiders gave Minshew $15 million guaranteed in free agency after he nearly led the Colts to the playoffs last season. Minshew and the Raiders open the season September 8 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Raiders’ quarterback competition may be over at this time next week.

Aidan O’Connell and Gardner Minshew are vying for the starting job in Las Vegas and O’Connell got the start in the team’s first preseason game. Minshew is set to start the second game against the Cowboys on August 17 and head coach Antonio Pierce said on Sunday that he thinks that will be enough information to make a call about who will be under center in Week 1.

Fantasy Impact:

The story went on to say O’Connell and Minshew both led scoring drives during their time in the preseason opener and Pierce said he thought both players did well, so there’s not much of a hint about which way he’s leaning as decision day draws closer.

"That's the plan, to have both those guys really compete through the offseason program, but more so in training camp, and we'll see how it plays out."

The Raiders are set for a QB battle in camp with Gardner Minshew and Aidan O'Connell.

Fantasy Impact:

O'Connell had a decent enough rookie season, but still only managed 6.5 yards per pass attempt. Minshew would likely offer more upside for the fantasy pieces in Las Vegas.
