With the Raiders reportedly focused on reaching a deal with Derek Carr in the coming months, many are wondering if Carr would offer a home-team discount to help the Raiders continue to build the roster.

Derek addressed the notion of taking less money during a Thursday segment on FS1’s “The Herd” with Colin Cowherd.

“Everybody’s situation is different. I’m obviously a team guy first and foremost. There’s no no. 4 without the rest of the team. There no doubt about that. I’ll never be sitting here saying I’m better than I am or anything like that because I know that I’m nothing without those guys. I’m always a team guy, but at the same time they had three or four years of the rookie contract, too, to build a team and things like that and then I just start thinking about my family, thinking about my boys, thinking about all the people in Haiti, I have a heart for Haiti, that I could help. I think about all the churches I’m attached to and all the people that that could help and that’s what motivates me. It’s not for me. I wear the same clothes that I had since college. I wear all the free stuff that the Raiders give me. It’s about helping people. I’m not greedy. I’m not anything like that…”

Carr is entering the final year of his rookie contract in 2017 and says he’s “fired up” to get a deal done. Former agent and CBS Sports contributor, Joel Corry, believes Carr is likely to get a deal worth at least $25 million per year and over $80 million in guaranteed money.

Not bad for a quarterback that isn’t as good as you think he is.
