Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew left Sunday’s game with an injury late in the fourth quarter after being sacked by Denver Broncos linebackers Cody Barton and Jonathon Cooper. Minshew suffered a broken collarbone and his season is now over, as first reported by NFL Media.
With the Raiders trailing 26-19 with 3:12 left, Minshew dropped back and scrambled to his right when Barton and Cooper both hit the 28-year-old journeyman.
Minshew was replaced by Desmond Ridder, who scrambled for 3 yards on second down and then fumbled after being sacked by Broncos linebacker Nik Bonitto. Denver lineman Malcolm Roach recovered the ball and the Broncos took over at the Raiders 17.
