Raiders QB Gardner Minshew reportedly suffers season-ending broken collarbone
Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew sustained a season-ending broken collarbone in Sunday’s 29-19 loss to the Denver Broncos, NFL Network reports.
The injury leaves the Raiders with just Desmond Ridder at quarterback. The Raiders placed Aidan O’Connell on injured reserve in October with a fractured thumb. He was reportedly given an initial timeline of 4-6 weeks to return. It’s not clear how far along he is in his recovery.
Minshew suffered his injury on the Raiders’ penultimate drive with 2:57 remaining on the game clock and Denver leading, 26-19. Cody Barton and Jonathon Cooper combined to sack Minshew on the first play of the drive. Barton’s tackle drove Minshew’s left (non-throwing) shoulder into the turf.
Minshew was in obvious pain after the play and walked off the field with the aid of trainers. Ridder finished the game at quarterback. The Raiders signed Ridder off the Falcons’ practice squad in October when O’Connell injured his thumb.
