Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell (knee) is inactive as the emergency third QB for tonight's game vs. the Falcons. QB Desmond Ridder makes his first start of the season against the team that selected him in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft.

Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Falcons. He didn't practice all week, though, so it'd be a surprise if he played. Look for QB Desmond Ridder to make his first start of the season on Monday -- against his former team. Despite the "revenge factor," Ridder sits 27th in the Week 15 QB Rankings.

Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell has been diagnosed with a bone bruise in his left knee, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. It's a relatively minor injury, and O'Connell hasn't even been ruled out for next Monday night's game vs. the Falcons, per Rapoport. We'll track his status throughout this week. QB Desmond Ridder will start against Atlanta if O'Connell can't. It's a situation to steer clear of, even in superflex leagues. TE Brock Bowers and WR Jakobi Meyers' outlooks won't change much based on the QB.

Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell was carted off in the third quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Bucs with his left leg in an air cast. He's been replaced by QB Desmond Ridder. We'll update O'Connell's status when we know more, but this looks like a season-ender.
