Raiders, the option of Jameis Winston
The Raiders are in a quarterback quandary as Jimmy Garoppolo failed the physical with the Las Vegas team after signing a three-year, $72.75 million deal.
In addition to Jimmy G, the Raiders have Brian Hoyer, Chase Garbers and rookie Aidan O’Connell. Thus, Winston would be a good fit for the ‘Sin City’ team.
