It was still Mendoza vs. Cousins at Raiders OTAs — but this time, Tom Brady looked on
- Tom Brady attended the Raiders' second open OTA practice, observing as an owner and resource for the team.
- The quarterback competition includes Fernando Mendoza, Kirk Cousins, and Aidan O’Connell, with no starter named yet.
- Kubiak and Janocko emphasize a culture of competition and growth for all three quarterbacks.
- Cousins produced a notable sequence with Bowers and later connected with Tucker, while Mendoza flashed a deep sideline throw.
- O’Connell delivered two TD throws in a team context, highlighting the mix of experiences in the quarterback room.
- Janocko described his role as fluid and tied to the head coach's plan, fostering collaboration within the offense.
- Brady’s involvement is described as an “unbelievable resource” for staff and players, though his day-to-day presence is limited.
- The practice emphasized growth and competition, with Mendoza working mainly with rookies and developing players.
- Brady’s schedule and outside broadcasting duties may limit his on-field involvement as the season nears.
