The Raiders have locked in their starting quarterback for the foreseeable future. After a few years of speculation that he could be on the trade block, Derek Carr will now be with the team until at least 2025.
According to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport, the Raiders have agreed to a three-year extension with Carr for up to $121.5 million. That means he could earn upwards of $40 million over the next three years, which would make him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL.
It’s also worth mentioning that Carr has a no-trade clause in his contract, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Media. He’s now set to earn $141.3 million over the next four years, per Garafolo.
