The Raiders have made a major commitment to general manager Reggie McKenzie, who was handed a four-year extension by owner Mark Davis on Friday night.
The Raiders confirmed the news, which was first reported by tweets from J.T. The Brick, a Fox Sports radio host who also does television work for the Raiders. Per the tweets, Davis announced the extension Friday night at an event for Raiders alumni and staff.
McKenzie is entering his fifth year as Raiders general manager and the final year of his contract while coming off his finest offseason in Oakland.
The Raiders lured in three of the more attractive free agents in offensive guard Kelechi Osemele, outside linebacker Bruce Irvin and cornerback Sean Smith.
