Kirk Cousins hits Tre Tucker for 40-yard touchdown, Raiders lead 7-0

Kirk Cousins has unleashed a deep ball.

The veteran Raiders QB hit a wide-open Tre Tucker in the end zone for a 40-yard touchdown, giving Las Vegas a 7-0 lead over the Chargers in the second quarter.

Cousins has taken some heat over the last week for not connecting on downfield passes in last week’s victory over Miami. But on Sunday, Cousins has started well — going 6-of-8 for 101 yards with a touchdown and an interception so far.

Tucker has three receptions for 68 yards with a TD.

On the other side, the Chargers have just 55 yards and two punts, along with a missed field goal and an interception in their first four drives.
