LAS VEGAS — Chase Garbers was 12 of 22 for 141 yards and the Las Vegas Raiders finished the preseason undefeated after Friday’s 23-6 victory over the New England Patriots.

It marked the first time in franchise history the Raiders (4-0) finished undefeated in the preseason.

Las Vegas scored on three of its first four possessions as a group of Raiders backups and hopefuls started the game by running roughshod through the Patriots’ first-team offense and defense.

Jarrett Stidham, who will back up quarterback Derek Carr in the regular season, was 4 of 6 for 72 yards, while running backs Zamir White and Brittain Brown each scored a touchdown for Las Vegas.

Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson was 3 for 3 on his field-goal attempts and finished the preseason 9 for 9.

New England quarterback Mac Jones and the Patriots’ starting offense played four possessions, two ending in a three-and-out, one with an interception, and the final one with a field goal.

Jones was 9 of 13 for 71 yards with one interception. Brian Hoyer finished 6 of 7 for 47 yards, and Bailey Zappe was 10 of 14 for 84 yards with an interception for the Patriots (1-2).

For the preseason, across seven series, the Patriots’ starting offense had four end without a first down, one end in a turnover, one with a touchdown and one with a field goal.

After stopping New England on its opening drive, the Raiders opened the scoring with a 23-yard field goal.

Then, five players after Luke Masterson picked off Jones, White ran left just inside the pylon to make it 10-0 with 3:20 left in the first quarter.

Las Vegas’ defense handled New England the rest of the way, holding the Patriots to two field goals over their final eight possessions.
