Rejecting because there are offers? He’s rejecting so 1) he can control his destiny and more importantly 2) he’s realizing he’s not gonna get 40mil/year so might as well get that 5mil a year from the Raiders + that new contract money which probably still won’t add up to 40mil/year

I’ll answer as people seem to be rude and downvoting you.

  1. A trade is the move of swapping a player’s rights for another player or draft picks.
  2. a team would trade a player in an effort to improve their team. Carr, while a decent player could have potentially better trade value than his worth in the Raiders setup.
  3. most of the time a player doesn’t want to be traded, however in this example Carr’s position is untenable. He’s been thrown under the bus by the Raiders this season.

Hope that helped.
