FSM Preview: Las Vegas Raiders vs Houston Texans - Preseason Week 2 - 2026

Preseason Week 2 is here! 🏈🔥

Following a fiery joint practice in Texas, the Raiders are back in action tonight. Head coach Klint Kubiak confirmed the starters are expected to play—giving us a much closer look at what this roster can do.

What we're watching closely tonight:

🛡️ The Trenches: Can the offensive line protect the pocket after getting pushed around by Houston's pass rush?

🎯 Fernando Mendoza: How the young QB responds under pressure and handles his first-team reps.

🧱 Run Defense: Physicality up the middle to tighten things up after getting gashed last week.
