Las Vegas Raiders Quarterback Suffers Thumb Injury
Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell fractures his thumb during a game, leading to a potential IR placement. The second-year quarterback's injury adds to the team's challenges amid a losing streak.
Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell is expected to be out for several weeks after fracturing his thumb during a game against the Los Angeles Rams.
The injury occurred in the first quarter when Rams safety Kam Curl hit O'Connell's hand as he attempted a deep pass.
Despite trying to tough it out, O'Connell's thumb numbness forced him to leave the game. The Raiders are facing challenges in the quarterback position following his injury.
With veteran Gardner Minshew benched, the team is navigating a difficult season with a series of setbacks. Their next game against the unbeaten Kansas City Chiefs poses a tough challenge.
