Raiders' QB Dilemma: Smith or Jones?

Description

The Las Vegas Raiders face a grim outlook for the 2025 NFL season, with quarterback Geno Smith seemingly entrenched, especially if Pete Carroll stays as head coach. Smith appears unfazed by Carrolls criticism, making it unlikely for a quarterback change. If Smith leaves, theres no clear successor, suggesting Carrolls influence might be waning. General manager John Spytek could shake things up by acquiring another veteran quarterback. Meanwhile, Mac Jones, a former first-round pick, could become an offseason trade chip, with the Raiders among nine potential suitors. Grant Cohn of SI.com suggests the Raiders could trade for Jones to create a quarterback competition for the 2026 season, believing Jones would likely win. However, the Raiders might be hesitant due to their previous experience with Jimmy Garoppolo.
