Raiders rookie watch: Michael Mayer opens eyes

Let’s look at how the Las Vegas Raiders’ rookie class performed in a 21-17 Week 6 home victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday as they prepare for a road game at the Chicago Bears.

Four of the team’s nine draft picks were inactive for the game. Sunday’s rookie inactives were fourth-round pick, quarterback Aidan O’Connell, fifth-round pick, safety Christopher Smith, sixth-round pick, linebacker Amari Burney and seventh-round pick, defensive tackle Nesta Jade Silvera.

O’Connell could make his second start at the Bears if starter Jimmy Garoppolo is out with a back injury.
