Kirk Cousins — Active
Though the Raiders have dropped four straight games to drop to 3-4 on the season, Kubiak reaffirmed his commitment to Cousins, who has done his part to keep the team competitive amid the losing streak. The veteran signal-caller leads the NFL with 16 touchdown passes and ranks third with 1,877 passing yards, with the Raiders' struggling defense (28.1 points allowed per game) and poor running game (3.0 yards per carry) having been the bigger culprits in the team's recent swoon. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Kubiak said that No. 1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza is "going to play at some point," but the rookie looks like he'll have to wait at least one more week before seeing extended action while Cousins has directed a serviceable offense.

With the Raiders trailing throughout, Cousins had another very busy day and finished with his third-highest passing yardage total of the season. Cousins also threw multiple touchdown passes for the sixth time in seven games, connecting with Tre Tucker (37 yards) and Ashton Jeanty (15 yards) for fourth-quarter scoring strikes. The veteran signal-caller continues to show excellent command of Klint Kubiak's offense, as he connected with eight different targets in the high-scoring loss. Cousins has compiled 1,877 passing yards and generated a 16:5 TD:INT through his first seven games heading into a Week 8 road matchup against the Jets next Sunday.
Kirk Cousins — Active
Cousins completed a season-low 56.1 percent of his passes, but the veteran signal-caller went toe to toe with Josh Allen and nearly helped Las Vegas force overtime, at minimum, with a 17-point fourth quarter. Cousins first led a 15-play, 70-yard march that culminated in a Matt Gay field goal beginning in the latter portion of the third quarter, and he subsequently recorded 11- and 44-yard scoring strikes to Tre Tucker. While the Raiders came up just short, Cousins posted his second-highest passing yardage tally of the campaign and threw multiple TD passes for the fifth time in six contests. Cousins will face off with another marquee passer in Matthew Stafford when the Rams pay a visit for a Week 7 interconference showdown Sunday.

The lopsided result owed much more to the fact that the Raiders defense couldn't stop Drake Maye than it did to Cousins' performance, but it still provided coach Klint Kubiak with an opportunity to give Fernando Mendoza his first snaps in the NFL on the team's final drive. Las Vegas has lost two straight games with Cousins under center after a 3-0 start, and while the veteran QB has a more than respectable 12:4 TD:INT and 65.1 percent completion rate in his five starts, he was always going to be a placeholder until the first overall pick in the 2026 draft is deemed ready to take over. A switch at quarterback may not be imminent, but the clock may be ticking on Cousins' tenure as the starter heading into a Week 6 battle with the Bills.

Cousins opened the scoring with a 27-yard touchdown pass to Ian Thomas in the first quarter, but his next touchdown pass didn't come until 1:46 remained in the fourth quarter, when Cousins connected with Brock Bowers for a 20-yard touchdown and added a two-point conversion to Cody White to cut the Raiders' deficit to three points. Vegas got the ball back, but Cousins was picked off on the game's penultimate play as the Raiders' comeback bid came up short. Despite Sunday's setback, Cousins has led the Raiders to a 3-1 record while posting an 11:4 TD:INT heading into a Week 5 road game against the Patriots.
Kirk Cousins — Active
The veteran QB got his first chance to work with Brock Bowers, but it was Michael Mayer and Cody White who were on the other end of Cousins' first two TDs of the afternoon before he connected with his superstar tight end for a four-yard score in the fourth quarter that provided the game-winning points. Cousins has led the Raiders to a stunning 3-0 record to begin the season, completing 67.4 percent (62-for-92) of his passes for 661 yards with a 9:3 TD:INT, and 2026 first overall pick Fernando Mendoza could be waiting a while before he gets a chance to make his first NFL start. Cousins will face a much tougher test in Week 4 at home against Kansas City.
