Raiders HC confirms competition at QB spot
Terrelle Pryor - QB - Oakland Raiders
Jan. 24, 2013 - 9:40 PM ET

Raiders head coach Dennis Allen confirmed there will be "some competition" at the quarterback position this summer.

"The more competition that you can create, the better your football team is going to be. We're going to look at that as we're moving forward, but I feel good about Carson [Palmer]. Terrelle [Pryor] did some nice things in the final game of the season last year, so it'll be interesting to see how he does as we move forward," said Allen. This piggy-backs what GM Reggie McKenzie said on Tuesday. However, the expectation is that Palmer will be the Week 1 starter in 2013.
