Here’s what stood out to me after Sunday’s action.

Coach Tom Cable has tabbed Bruce Gradkowski the Raiders starting quarterback, benching former No. 1 overall pick JaMarcus Russell according to the team.

JaMarcus Russell is out again. For the second time this season, the Raiders have benched Russell in favor of backup Bruce Gradkowski.

Trailing 21-0 midway through the second quarter, Raiders coach Tom Cable has apparently seen enough. Cable has benched starting QB JaMarcus Russell in favor of veteran backup Bruce Gradkowski.

The Raiders have released veteran QB Jeff Garcia, a source with knowledge of the situation told NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora.

Taking a look at some of my little known gems from Week 1 of the preason, including rookies Aaron Brown and Ellis Lankster.

The Raiders have claimed quarterback Bruce Gradkowski off waivers, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. The Raiders nearly claimed the quarterback as a backup last season, but they instead went with Andrew Walter and Marques Tuiasosopo.

The struggling Cleveland Browns had been relegated to playing third-string QB Ken Dorsey. Now, they might be relegated to depending on those behind him to lead an offense that hasn’t scored a touchdown in five games.

They spoke with Daunte Culpepper, worked out Bruce Gradkowski, but in the end, it looks like the Chiefs have turned to Quinn Gray as the quarterback to fill out their roster.

Kansas City was putting the finishing touches on a deal Wednesday morning with Gray, who played with the Jacksonville Jaguars and spent last summer with the Indianapolis Colts.
