New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner went viral for his cautious comments about Giants quarterback Daniel Jones, which many interpreted as a polite attempt to avoid criticism of the underperforming player. Gardner's careful phrasing during a media session raised eyebrows, especially given Jones' hefty contract and lackluster performance. Meanwhile, Gardner Minshew has been named the starting quarterback for the Las Vegas Raiders after a close competition with Aidan O'Connell, following his offseason signing to a two-year, $25 million deal. Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce cited Minshew's ability to help the team start strong as a factor in the decision. Minshew's history as a castoff quarterback aligns him with other successful Raiders QBs, adding intrigue to whether he can replicate their success. The Raiders' quarterback situation remains fluid, as Minshew's performance will determine if he retains his starting role throughout the season.
