Raiders giving Pryor big opportunity in 2013
Raiders head coach Dennis Allen made it clear in December that he wanted to get QB Terrelle Pryor on the field, and that a package of plays was set up for Pryor. The former Ohio State star finally got his opportunity — in Week 17, as a starter in place of Carson Palmer, not as a gimmick, but it could have been a glimpse into the near future for the Raiders as opposed to long-term.
GM Reggie McKenzie said on Sirius XM NFL Radio this week that Pryor will have a chance to compete to start during training camp.
