The NFL preseason heats up as Week 2 kicks off with the Las Vegas Raiders traveling to take on the Houston Texans. During their opening exhibition match against the Arizona Cardinals, rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza flashed his considerable potential.
He successfully completed 10 of 16 passes for a total of 97 yards and recorded a touchdown. However, the front office and coaching staff plan to ease their prized rookie into action slowly.
Veteran Kirk Cousins is slated as the primary starter to begin the upcoming regular season. Meanwhile, Arizona's rookie running back and third overall pick Jeremiyah Love made a massive first impression.
In that same 27-14 victory, Love rumbled for 58 rushing yards on heavy touches and added three receptions to lead the team's backfield snaps.
