Notes
Oakland Raiders QBs Matt Flynn, Tyler Wilson, Terrelle Pryor and Matt McGloin didn't fare well at their minicamp Tuesday, June 11. Many of their throws were batted down at the line of scrimmage, landed behind and over receivers, and were generally off the mark. No option distinguished himself from the others. Pryor said that since defenders weren't wearing pads, they were more upright, which made it easier to bat down throws.

Oakland Raiders head coach Dennis Allen said QB Matt Flynn is the starting quarterback right now. 'Matt is our starting quarterback as we go forward right now,' Allen said. 'Until the competition dictates otherwise, that's the way we're going.'
