Is the 25M total a base number or the max number with lots of playing time or performance incentives included to push it to 25M?


Further, Minshew may have thought that he had a better chance at playing time in Vegas. He knows the Colts are Richardson's team as long as AR is healthy.

It depends on the contract structure but 25 million is average per year money for a baseline nfl starter.

I think your last sentence is the key. Minshew probably wants the chance to play and he won’t get that here as long as AR is healthy.

The Raiders have O’Connell and no one else unless they draft one.
