Overview
- The Raiders completed a 35-27 road comeback to beat the New Orleans Saints and improved to 3-0, giving Klint Kubiak his first three wins as an NFL head coach.
- Quarterback Kirk Cousins has opened the season with three touchdown passes in each of his first three games for Las Vegas and leads the team’s early offensive surge.
- Las Vegas’ defense forced four straight turnovers in the fourth quarter of the Saints game and leads the league in takeaways and turnover differential, a key factor in the team’s early wins.
- Tight end Brock Bowers returned from injury and finished the game with 10 catches for 116 yards and a touchdown, providing a major lift to the passing attack.
- The Raiders will host the unbeaten Kansas City Chiefs in Week 4 in a matchup that will test whether the 3-0 start is sustainable, and the team made roster moves and injury updates with wide receiver Jack Bech sidelined and Tyler Scott added from the practice squad.
