The Seattle Seahawks are facing off against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 10, but they won't be facing off against quarterback Kirk Cousins.

The Raiders traded Cousins just hours before the deadline to the Minnesota Vikings for a third-round pick in the 2027 NFL Draft, which opens the door for Fernando Mendoza to make his first career start.

Mendoza, the No. 1 overall pick and reigning Heisman Trophy winner, now has the reins of the Raiders offense, but he won't have it easy facing off against the Seahawks in his first game.
