The Raiders made a big change to their offense when they fired offensive coordinator Luke Getsy last week, but they aren’t planning any big moves this week.

Head coach Antonio Pierce said at his Monday press conference that Gardner Minshew will remain the team’s starting quarterback against the Broncos in Week 12. Minshew was 30-of-43 for 282 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception in Sunday’s 34-19 loss to the Dolphins.

Pierce said he thought the passing offense was “more efficient” and “more crisp” in Scott Turner’s first week calling the offensive plays, the story said. He added that Minshew did a “good job of managing” the offense and keeping the ball out of harm’s way before being picked off while trying to push for a comeback late in the fourth quarter, the story added. O'Connell won't come off the IR for another week but could very well jump back into the starting role once he's ready to go.

Gardner Minshew will start at QB for Raiders, says coach Antonio Pierce.

Minshew is —quite impressively— the QB38 in FPPG (8.3), with four separate performances under 8 fantasy points. He can remain on benches in all formats.

The quarterback play has been terrible, and the Raiders are expected to make the change to Desmond Ridder after Gardner Minshew II was benched for a third time this season.

O'Connell is expected to miss 4-6 weeks and is on IR. He could return in December based on that timeline, but for Week 11, it looks like the Raiders are going with Ridder against the Dolphins. Ridder was just recently signed off the wire and made his debut in relief of Minshew when we last saw the Raiders in Week 9. Ridder likely won't make an impact as the starter, but the hope is the offense continues to target Bowers at TE and Meyers at WR so their fantasy stock remains steady.

Raiders HC Antonio Pierce said he wouldn't name a starting QB moving forward.

The Raiders are fresh off firing some coaches to start the week, including their OC Luke Getsy. Pierce hasn't yet decided on a play caller, and so an announcement at QB may come after that decision. The Raiders have a bye in Week 10 so they will have some time to sort everything out. With O'Connell on IR, there isn't much reason to stick with Minshew, however the team just recently signed Ridder, so it's possible he gets a chance with the offense once the team is back in action in Week 11.

Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports that the Raiders will sign Desmond Ridder off of Arizona’s practice squad. Aidan O’Connell and Gardner Minshew are the only other quarterbacks on the active roster and they have rookie Carter Bradley on the practice squad.

The Raiders didn’t confirm that quarterback O’Connell will be placed on injured reserve with a fractured thumb on Monday, but they are making a roster move that makes it clear they are short of healthy quarterbacks this week, the story pointed out. Ridder is probably best left on wires in typical leagues, but of course in deeper two QB or superflex leagues, any quarterback is worth stashing away on your roster.

Raiders QB Aidan O’Connell now is expected to miss four to six weeks with a broken thumb, per sources. He is getting a second opinion today to confirm the initial diagnosis.

Pro Football Talk is reporting O'Connell will be placed on IR. Minshew takes back over as the starting QB after O'Connell recently replaced him, but Minshew hasn't been great this season and threw three interceptions after taking over against the Rams. The Raiders will have to make a move for another QB to be added to the roster.

Raiders HC Antonio Pierce said Aidan O'Connell will be the starting QB against the Steelers this Sunday.

Do not, under any circumstance, start O'Connell in Week 6.

If the Raiders are going to make a quarterback switch this week, head coach Antonio Pierce wasn’t ready to say so during his Monday news conference.

“Yeah, just keep evaluating the film, evaluating everything from scheme, players — everything,” Pierce said. “So, we’re still doing that upstairs, currently.”

Minshew was benched for O’Connell late in the third quarter. Minshew finished the game 12-of-17 for 137 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions — one of which was returned 100 yards by Pat Surtain for a pick six, the story went on to say.

Raiders quarterback Aidan O’Connell replaced Gardner Minshew during the third quarter against Denver.

Minshew threw two interceptions and had only 137 yards in what became a long day for the Raiders. O’Connell hasn’t fared much better, throwing an interception of his own as Denver took total control Sunday.

Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports that Gardner Minshew will remain the team’s starter.

O’Connell replaced Minshew and led a touchdown drive during the team’s Week 3 loss to the Panthers. We reported on Monday that Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce suggested a quarterback change was possible for Week 4 but that won't happen, at least for this week.
