Las Vegas Raiders quarterback coach Rich Scangarello discussed the Silver and Black signal callers Aidan O'Connell and Gardner Minshew from NFL OTAs, and we have it all for you.
HENDERSON, Nev.—The Las Vegas Raiders are riding a wave of optimism under Antonio Pierce's leadership, and as they barrel towards training camp, OTA season is well underway.
Q: I know it’s early on in OTAs, but what are your impressions of Gardner Minshew and Aidan O’Connell so far? Coach Scangarello: “Been very pleased. I mean, it's competitive. They're both incredible, good personalities. They balance each other well. They're different how they approach it, they’re different how they play, but their mindsets are similar. They're bringing out the best in each other. We've thrown a lot at them and they've handled it well.
Q: You’ve been in situations where there was a clear starter thistime of year and the job wasto get him in the backups ready for the season. That's still the case this year, but then there's also the component of deciding who that starter is going to be among the candidates.
Q: Do you think maybe something a little overlooked with Aidan is his arm strength and his arm talent? Coach Scangarello: “From what I've seen, he's exceptionally accurate. I don't say that lightly. Everyone has traits and there are strengths and weaknesses to every quarterback in this league, but he throws the ball where he needs it to go at a very high level. So, that's exciting and it's important in this system.
