Minshew will battle it out with incumbent spot starter Aidan O'Connell for the Raiders' starting QB job in 2024. Minshew fit in well with the Colts in 2023 and settled in as a QB2 in Fantasy. While he had spike weeks (QB2 and QB6 finishes), he also struggled to finish weeks inside the top 12 at QB in all but three of his games. Minshew joins a Raiders group with talented pass catchers in Davante Adams, Brock Bowers and Jakobi Meyers, but what should also be a run-first offense under HC Antonio Pierce. Minshew is a back-end QB2 if he wins the starting job and is not worth rostering in one-QB leagues.
One of the game's better backup quarterbacks over the course of his five-year career, Minshew signed for a surprisingly large guarantee in March, signaling his probable Week 1 starter status ahead of sophomore Aidan O'Connell. Minshew's advanced metrics are unexceptional -- his career 17.8% off-target rate, 50.8 Total QBR and minus-1.6% completion percentage over expected were all noticeably beneath league average -- yet he has averaged 16.1 fantasy points and scored 20-plus in 10 of his 37 starts. With a star pass-catcher in Davante Adams and capable receivers in Jakobi Meyers and rookie TE Brock Bowers, Minshew could serve as a matchups-oriented quarterback in deeper leagues.
