Where there was no guaranteed money there’s now $30.125 million guaranteed, per source.
We first speculated that Brown could potentially land with the Raiders back on March 4. Based on various reports, the Raiders maintained interest throughout the past few weeks and were the odds-on favorites all along.
Now, Brown will face the Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes twice a year.
