Fernando Mendoza throws pick-six in second NFL game as Raiders rookie faces growing pains

On his second pass of the preseason game against the Houston Texans on Thursday night, Mendoza threw an interception.

And not just any interception, because Texans linebacker Wade Woodaz plucked the ball out of the air and returned it 80 yards for a touchdown.
