Maxx Crosby and Hunter Renfrow were also extensions for the Raiders. He's still signed for two more years, but he's going to be the next player to make a lot of money.

Since "Waller and Raiders appear all-in on 2022 offensive production", there doesn't seem to be any tension.

TE Darren Waller reported to training camp today, per sources — which isn’t a surprise, but with two years of non-guaranteed money left on his contract, his deal is worth watching. No holdout necessary, though. Waller and Raiders appear all-in on 2022 offensive production.

In the past three seasons, the 29-year-old has caught over 3000 passes for over 3000 yards and 14 touchdown. He is second in reception and receiving yards during that time.

There is a desire to get more long-term financial security now, but a big 2022.

He doesn't have a track record like that so he has a better incentive to get paid now.

He earned his first Pro Bowl nod in 2021. It looks like he's got $3 million in earnings for the year.

Questions about a new contract weren't answered by the man.

He told reporters that he was aware of it. That's the reason I'm sweaty. An agent is handling that. I would like to play football.

The Raiders' best players have been rewarded, but the salary cap makes it difficult to accommodate everyone. It might be difficult for Ziegler to make a decision when it comes to the two men.
