Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew suffered a broken collarbone on Sunday and is done for the season, NFL Network and The Athletic reported.
Minshew suffered the injury late in the fourth quarter of Las Vegas’ 29-19 home loss to the Denver Broncos — the Raiders’ seventh straight defeat, dropping them to 2-9.
With Las Vegas still within a touchdown and roughly three minutes to play, Minshew was sacked by two Broncos defenders and landed on his left shoulder. He left the game, replaced by Desmond Ridder for the rest of the day.
Minshew completed 25 of 42 passes for 230 yards with one touchdown and one interception. He finishes his first season with the Raiders with 2,013 passing yards, nine TDs and 10 picks on 66.3 percent passing.
He joined the Raiders in free agency after stints in Jacksonville (2019-20), Philadelphia (2021-22) and Indianapolis (2023) and won the starting job in camp. But he was benched multiple times for Aidan O’Connell as the Raiders struggled as a team.
The Raiders have a short week coming up. They will visit the Kansas City Chiefs on Friday in the NFL’s second-ever Black Friday game.
