Plans of the Raiders’ $125 million man, Derek Carr

The $125 million man explained Friday morning how thankful he was and how much the team meant to him.

But can we get back to that first part ... $125 million.

Has Raiders quarterback Derek Carr grasped just how much money that is, after just signing a five-year contract extension that made him the highest-paid player in the NFL.

“It was like surreal at first,” Carr said. “I was like, ‘All right, man. That’s like Monopoly money, man. That’s weird.’”

He laughed for a second, but then got serious.

It’s not Monopoly money, it’s humanitarian money.
