Fernando Mendoza named Raiders starting quarterback
Fernando Mendoza will be the Raiders’ starting quarterback heading into Week 10 of the 2026 season.
“It’s something he’s worked really hard for from the moment he walked into this building,” John Spytek said of Mendoza. “He passed every test. … He put us in a position where we had to make a very difficult decision today with his growth as a person, as a teammate, as a leader, as a quarterback.”
