When the Las Vegas Raiders traded for Davante Adams and made him (temporarily) the highest paid wide receiver in the NFL, it appeared that a new deal for his college teammate, quarterback Derek Carr, was a formality.
Yet, 11 days later, Carr still does not have new contract. He is entering the final year of his current contract.
Monday, while speaking at the NFL owner’s meeting in Palm Beach, Florida, Las Vegas coach Josh McDaniels was asked about Carr’s contract talks. His answer made it appear that both sides still have things to work out.
