The Raiders’ opening drive consisted of nine plays for 75 yards – going 3-of-3 on third down conversions – and was capped off with an 18-yard receiving touchdown by Jakobi Meyers.

Rookie quarterback Aidan O’Connell totaled 138 passing yards this half while completing 13-of-16 pass attempts. Along with Davante Adams’ team-leading five receptions for 73 yards, O’Connell continued to spread the ball around and connect with Meyers, Hunter Renfrow, Josh Jacobs and Amber Abdullah.
O’Connell and Co. finished the half with 245 total yards of offense and converted 3-of-5 third downs attempts.
