After seven strong seasons split between Oakland and Las Vegas, the Raiders are rewarding starting left tackle Kolton Miller with a new three-year extension.
Originally slated to play out the final year of the three-year, $54 million deal he signed with the team in 2021, Miller has now earned a pay bump moving forward to go with his impressive play, locking up three more years in Sin City for an average annual value of $22 million, according to Jeremy Fowler.
Taking to the team’s official website to share the good news, the Raiders celebrated Miller for his contributions while noting why he deserves to be part of their plans long-term.
While some initially thought that Miller was an overdraft at pick No. 15, Miller rapidly proved the doubters wrong, showing he could transition from the Pac-12 to the NFL with ease and remain a quality starter regardless of who was coaching the team in any given season. With three more years locked up after this year, Miller should remain a stalwart in Las Vegas and will hopefully protect Geno Smith’s blindside as he looks to become a Super Bowl Champion under new head coach Pete Carroll.
