The Las Vegas Raiders appear ready to commit to Derek Carr for the foreseeable future. 

According to a report from The Athletic's Vic Tafur, the Raiders have opened extension talks with their starting quarterback. After the team traded for Carr's former college teammate, wide receiver Davante Adams, and handed Adams a massive five-year contract, it's not surprising they are working to keep Carr around for the long term. 

Carr is headed into the final year of his contract, and currently is set to count for $19,777,519 against the Raiders' salary cap. All of that money is base salary, which means none of it is guaranteed.
