LAS VEGAS — Derek Carr reiterated Thursday he won’t extend the Feb. 15 date for his contract to become fully guaranteed, which essentially means the Raiders will need to release him or have a trade worked out in principle by that date.
“I don’t think that that would be best for me,” he said after competing in the Pro Bowl Games skills competition at the Raiders’ Henderson facility.
In his first extended public comments since he was benched for the final two games of the season, the veteran quarterback also discussed what he will be looking for in a new team and his emotions since the organization decided he was no longer part of its future.
