Derek Carr was emphatic abouthis loyalty to the Raiders in an interview Tuesday on SiriusXM. <\/p>\n
Im a Raider. Im a Raider for life. I dont want to play anywhere else, Carr told Sirius XM Mad Dog Radios Adam Schein. When I got drafted, this is where I wanted to be anyway. And so, I dont want to go anywhere, ever. They told me they dont want me to go anywhere, ever. Now its about two people who want to be together, and how do we make that happen? So well see. <\/p>\n
Carr is entering the final year of his rookie contract and Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie has expressed strong interest in signing the quarterback to an extension. <\/p>\n
I think theyve been talking even since through the season, keeping a line of communication together and always keeping in touch with one another, Carr said of his agent, Tim Younger, and McKenzie. Now that its getting on down the line and getting serious, I think that theyre trying to figure out a way to (get) it done. If we can do that, great. If not, I can assure you Im just going to be out there playing football. <\/p>\n
The biggest thing for me is that I dont want it to distract my teammates. They know me, that I really dont care. I just like to play ball, but I dont want people asking them questions. I would want it done so they dont have to deal with it, but Im always going to do whats best for my family and whats best for the team all in one. <\/p>\n
I just want to play ball and I want to do it wearing a silver-and-black jersey. <\/p>\n
