Raiders' Jakobi Meyers Reportedly 'Open' to New Contract Ahead of 2025 NFL Season

As the No. 1 wide receiver on the Las Vegas Raiders right now and coming off the best year of his career, Jakobi Meyers will listen if the team wants to talk about a new contract going into the 2025 season.

Per ESPN's Ryan McFadden, Meyers would like to remain with the Raiders beyond 2025 and is "open" to signing an extension.

Meyers originally joined the Raiders on a three-year, $33 million contract as a free agent in March 2023. He has more than lived up to that deal thus far with 1,834 yards and 12 touchdowns in 31 games over the past two seasons.

Last season, Meyers (1,027 yards) and rookie tight end Brock Bowers (1,194) became the first pair of Raiders teammates to surpass the 1,000-yard mark in the same year since 2016.

The Raiders have restructured Meyers' contract in each of the past two years, including three months after they signed him. He is owed $10.5 million in base salary and will count just under $15 million against the 2025 salary cap.

Meyers has been an incredibly consistent pass-catcher since entering the NFL as an undrafted free agent with the New England Patriots in 2019. He has recorded at least 729 yards every season since 2020.

Las Vegas' receiving corps is very thin right now. Meyers leads a group that also includes Ramel Keyton and Tre Tucker.

It wouldn't be a surprise to see the Raiders add at least one pass-catcher early in the 2025 draft. Their top two picks are at No. 6 and 37 overall.

B/R's NFL scouting department is projecting Michigan cornerback Will Johnson to be the Raiders' first-round pick. Receiving options who could potentially be on the board when they pick in the second round include Missouri's Luther Burden III, Mississippi's Tre Harris and Ohio State's Emeka Egbuka.

The acquisition of Geno Smith at quarterback does allow the Raiders to go in any number of directions early in the draft. They also have arguably the best pass-catching tight end in the NFL.

Meyers' consistency makes him a valuable member of the offense for new head coach Pete Carroll. It wouldn't be a surprise if they did try to work out an extension with him to maintain stability going forward as they continue to add depth at wide receiver.
