Raiders quarterback 2025: Testing John Spytek’s mettle as GM from the jump

The search is complete.

John Spytek is the new general manager. Pete Carroll is the new head coach.

The Las Vegas Raiders’ vacancies are filled and soon enough, the Silver & Black’s new power structure will roll up their sleeves and get cracking on building a team that can compete — in the ultra-competitive AFC West and beyond.

And from the jump, Spytek’s mettle as talent evaluator and roster builder will be tested thoroughly as the Raiders are lacking at the all-important position of quarterback. While the Raiders had four signal callers on the roster during the 2024 campaign — starters Aidan O’Connell, Gardner Minshew II, Desmond Ridder, and Carter Bradley — the likliehood of the quarterback room looking like that in 2025 is as low as Ben Johnson coming to Las Vegas truly was.
