The Raiders signed free agent quarterback Nick Mullens on Friday, first reported by NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo.
ESPN’s Field Yates added that Mullens’s contract is for one year. The 27-year-old will earn around $1 million guaranteed, with a chance of making up to $2.5 million.
Las Vegas already has Garrett Gilbert as a backup quarterback for Derek Carr. Gilbert also previously played for the Browns as a backup for Baker Mayfield during the 2019 season.
With Mullens in the picture now, it is unclear which quarterback will act as the the official backup to Carr next season.
