Derek Carr is heading into the final year of his contract with the Las Vegas Raiders, but head coach Josh McDaniels said Monday the team is "trying to build around" the quarterback, via Vic Tafur of The Athletic.
"Derek's going to have to make decisions about what's best for him and we have to try to do what's right for the team," McDaniels added. "There will be a sweet spot in there hopefully for everybody."
Carr's last deal paid $125 million over five years, although the market has shifted significantly in recent seasons. His $25 million average salary now ranks just 14th among NFL quarterbacks, per Spotrac.
