Derek Carr says he will be a Raider "for life" after signing a five-year $125 million contract with the team that drafted him just a few short years ago. The $25 million average is the largest ever for an NFL quarterback.


Carr's $125 Million Contract In Cryptocurrency

37,000,000,000+ DOGE


He will receive a $40 million up front for signing and will receive $69 million over the first three years of the deal.

Carr has been an amazing pickup for the soon to be Las Vegas Raiders, leading to the team to the playoffs before suffering a gruesome leg injury in 2016.

The Raiders' impending move to Las Vegas will eventually save Carr some money, as California's 13% state income tax is not quite as competitive as Nevada's 0%.

He deserves it! I live in Vegas and I hope he can get past the first 3 years of the contract as the stadium wont be be done until then.

Derek Carr is a fantastic quarterback and he deserves it for getting the Raiders to win again. The Cleveland Browns would pay someone more, if they could get the wins

Omg is incredible, hope this is only the beginning. I was thinking about it yesterday, if I was a company manager, could I pay my employees in Bitcoin?

Look for Matt Stafford to sign an even bigger contract before the start of the 2017 season.

Great article!

I'm having trouble swallowing the size of this contract. This is Andrew Luck type money, has Carr proven to be that valuable yet?

And to think, The former GM for my NY Jets , John Idzik passed on Derek Carr because he wanted to see what he had in Geno Smith! Boy did that turn out to be a great decision! lol.
