Initial speculation on Aidan O’Connell’s injury during Sunday’s game against the Rams was that he had broken his thumb. That speculation turned out to be true as revealed Monday morning and the team is sending the second year QB to injured reserve.

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell is expected to be out four to six weeks with a broken thumb, a person close to the situation said Monday. The person spoke to the Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Raiders had not made an announcement.
