Now that the Raiders have officially traded for Davante Adams, they are set to make a run at the Super Bowl over the next few years. Leading the way will be Derek Carr, who is now joined with his former college teammate.
While there were some discussions and rumors this offseason that the Raiders would explore moving on from Carr, that is clearly not going to be the case with Adams in the fold. Carr is entering the final year of his contract in 2022, but that shouldn’t be the case for very much longer.
According to Vic Tafur of The Athletic, the Raiders have already begun contract talks with Carr. While there is no set date to get a deal done, the expectation is that one will be completed and signed before the start of the season.
