Raiders

  • Shortly after NFL owners approved the Raidersโ€™ relocation to Las Vegas, San Antonio was tossed out as a potential temporary home for the team until their stadium is built.
  • Vincent Bonsignore reports that multiple cities have reached out to the Raiders to express interest in being a temporary home for the team including San Antonio.

Saints

  • Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, citing a source with knowledge of the contract, reports the Saints have signed QB Chase Daniel to a contract that includes a guaranteed base salary of $900,000 for the 2017 season.
  • Because Danielโ€™s prior agreement with the Eagles included $5 million in fully guaranteed, Philadelphia will be on the hook for the difference of $4.1 million.
  • According to Florio, Daniel can earn up to $3 million in incentives, which would bring his total earning to $6.9 million in 2017 if realized.
