The Las Vegas Raiders are keeping fans on edge as they scramble to name their Week One starter—Klint Kubiak refuses to commit, hinting at one more week of uncertainty. With Kirk Cousins and rookie phenom Fernando Mendoza battling it out, whispers suggest the team may ease Mendoza into the league while protecting Cousins’ health. Mendoza’s shaky debut—eight of 15 for 86 yards, a costly pick-six, and an early benching—has fueled speculation that Kubiak is holding back the first-overall pick. Cousins, meanwhile, seems content with his role as the seasoned backup, knowing Mendoza’s inevitable rise. With just one preseason game left and no clear starter announced, it feels like Kubiak’s already decided—but he’s playing the waiting game. If Cousins starts, expect Mendoza’s time to come soon—he’s the future, after all.
