Jimmy Garoppolo in concussion protocol

According to Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Las Vegas Raiders HC Josh McDaniels says QB Jimmy Garoppolo is in concussion protocol following their Sunday Night Football game.

Fantasy Impact: With the way the NFL has been prioritizing concussions in recent seasons, this heavily drops the likelihood of Garoppolo being available for Week 4. If so, the likely option to start is veteran QB Brian Hoyer, though he has not thrown for 250 yards in a start since 2017. Another option could be rookie QB Aidan O’Connell, a preseason standout, though he has operated as QB3 this season (inactive all year) making this less likely.
