Raiders Sign Michael Mayer to $45M Extension — 2dThe Las Vegas Raiders have extended tight end Michael Mayer for three years at $45 million with $30 million guaranteed, making him one of the highest-paid at the position and setting him up for expanded duties as Brock Bowers deals with a knee issue that will sideline him early. The move comes alongside ongoing concerns about Bowers’ durability, with Mayer expected to step in for Week 1 and serve as a key security blanket for the Raiders’ developing offense.

Maya Lindstrom Mayer's extension looks like solid insurance with Bowers banged up, but 30 million guaranteed feels steep for a backup role.

Dana Whitfield It's helpful that overtime and tips are tax-free now, but cutting aid programs will hurt too many working families who rely on them.
