Monday, Las Vegas Raiders coach Josh McDaniels indicated that the team’s brass may decide to sit some players for the final two games of the season based on injury and contract situations.
That scenario, of course, includes veteran quarterback Derek Carr.
If Carr, indeed, doesn’t play Sunday at home against the San Francisco 49ers and in Week 18 at home against the Kansas City Chiefs, it may be a strong indication the Raiders will move away from him in the offseason.
The Raiders only have $5 million in dead money for Carr in 2023 if they move away from him by mid February.
