Recently, Bovada released odds for what team the Oakland Raiders’ Khalil Mack will be a member of following the NFL trade deadline. While the Raiders remain the favorites to be Mack’s team through the end of the season, it is noteworthy that the line suggests his leaving the silver and black behind is a real possibility.
For those that have not been following the Khalil Mack saga, the short version is that he wants a market-setting contract extension in which the majority of the money will be paid once he plays his home games in Nevada rather than California and the Raiders would prefer to pay him less money and frontload more of the contract to give them more flexibility longterm.
