Chandler Jones, Raiders Reportedly Agree to Contract Worth Around $17M Annually
Veteran pass-rusher Chandler Jones is reportedly finalizing a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
The deal will reportedly pay Jones about $17 million per year, per Mike Garafolo of NFL Network.
This brings Chandler's six-year run with the Arizona Cardinals to an end. The writing was on the wall after ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported in July he had requested a trade amid a contract standoff.
Fowler noted how the Cardinals invested a big sum in J.J. Watt (two years, $28 million) and handed out lucrative extensions to DeAndre Hopkins (two years, $54.5 million) and Budda Baker (four years, $59 million).
