Raiders face critical questions ahead of training camp starting Tuesday

The Las Vegas Raiders gear up for training camp starting July 28, facing key questions about their future.

Highly anticipated rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza signed his contract and is expected to compete against veteran Kirk Cousins for the starting position.
