Raiders Lock Up Tight End With $51 Million Extension
Waller Moves to No. 83 After Productive Season
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller has inked a three-year, $51 million contract extension with the team, securing his future with the Silver and Black. The 29-year-old standout, who previously wore No. 87, will now take the field in No. 83. Waller has established himself as one of the most prolific pass-catching tight ends in the NFL, setting a new Raiders franchise record with 107 receptions in a single season in 2021.
Waller's new contract underscores his importance to the Raiders' offense. He has become a go-to target for quarterback Derek Carr, providing a reliable and versatile weapon in the passing game. With a new number and a new contract in hand, Waller is poised to continue his dominance as a key component of the Raiders' success in the upcoming season.
