Trust = spike production for that player
Quarterback
Tyson Bagent: Bagent is expected to make his first NFL start on Sunday with Justin Fields suffering a thumb injury.
In relief of Fields on Sunday, Bagent completed 10-of-14 passes for 83 yards (5.9 Y/A) with an interception and a fumble on his five possessions. He did score his first career touchdown on a quarterback sneak.
Similar to Bailey Zappe a year ago, Bagent has oodles of experience and a solid resume of stacking production at an even smaller school in Division 2.
Bagent threw over 2,000 passes (2,040) in his career at Shepherd, which was 543 more pass attempts than the next closest quarterback in the 2023 draft class.
In the shotgun-rich spread offense, Bagent turned in 17,034 career passing yards to go along with 159 touchdown passes.
This preseason, Bagent completed 20-of-29 passes (69.0%) for 156 yards (5.4 Y/A) with zero touchdowns and an interception.
Bagent is only an option for 2QB formats.
Over the past four weeks against Kenny Pickett, Justin Herbert, Jordan Love, and Mac Jones, the Raiders have allowed a 60.0% completion rate (eighth) and 6.8 yards per pass attempt (14th).
