Kirk Cousins Confirmed as Raiders' Starting QB

Kirk Cousins has been officially named the Las Vegas Raiders' starting quarterback for the season opener. Coach Klint Kubiak confirmed the role is "Cousins' job to lose" following the team's 27-14 preseason loss to the Cardinals. While rookie Fernando Mendoza is pushing for development reps, Cousins remains the primary signal-caller and will continue to work with the first-string offense.
