Quarterback Fernando Mendoza helped Indiana put an undefeated cap on their storybook season this week by leading the Hoosiers to a 27–21 win over Miami in the CFP national championship. The 22-year-old went a modest 16-for-28 passing in the contest for 186 yards, but was able to do his part to help seal the victory in the fourth quarter by breaking loose for an epic 4th-and-five touchdown run near the goal line to give Indiana a two-score lead.
Now? Mendoza is back on the job market, where he's #OpenToWork after officially declaring for the NFL draft on Friday. He's widely expected to be the No. 1 pick—a selection the Raiders currently own after going just 3–14 this past season.
