When reports surfaced Wednesday that quarterback Derek Carr was on the verge of agreeing to a long-term contract with the Oakland Raiders, Carr took to social media to remind fans that you’d hear it from him first when a deal was done.
On Thursday, he was true to his word.
Now it's done ud83dude02! From the jump I've wanted to be a Raider 4 life. One step closer to that! Blessed!!! Business done! Let's just play now!!!
NFL Network’s Thursday report on the dollar figure matches what ESPN was reporting a day earlier – that Carr will get $125 million over five years.
