The Oakland Raiders will give Terrelle Pryor an opportunity to win their starting quarterback job.

Pryor started for the Raiders in Week 17, going 13-for-28 for 150 yards, two touchdowns and an interception.

“He needs to see if he can take a game over in the preseason, make some plays and carry out a game plan,” McKenzie told me and co-host Jim Miller on Sirius XM NFL Radio. “Let him compete. That’s what it’s all about. If it looks like he can help us win, at the end of the day, that’s what it’s all about. That’s what we want.”

Carson Palmer is a potential candidate for release because of his scheduled $13 million salary in 2013.
