Aidan O’Connell Likely To Throw Often In Week 12
12 months agoLas Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell lost his winning streak against the Miami Dolphins last week. O'Connell completed 24 of 41 passes for 271 yards and three interceptions. Despite his flurry of turnovers, the game was close until the end. With numerous defensive players on the injury report, including star edge-rusher Maxx Crosby, the Chiefs could pull away quickly. O'Connell may be forced to throw more than the Raiders would like to in this contest. The Chiefs defense is one of the league's more underrated units, and O'Connell may be in for a tough afternoon. Despite the odds being stacked against them, there is a different energy around the Raiders with the organizational changes, so anything could happen. O'Connell could be thrust into a robust workload this week, but he should not be considered a starter for fantasy teams yet.
