Raiders QB Mendoza skips White House visit for practice

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Fernando Mendoza declined a White House invitation with the Indiana Hoosiers to prioritize rookie practice and prove his worth.

Mendoza stated that as a rookie, missing practice isn't 'a good look' and he must prove himself despite being at the bottom of the totem pole.

He acknowledged veterans like Kirk Cousins and referenced Larry Bird’s similar decision in 1984, emphasizing his commitment to football over accolades. fish-roadgame.com
