Raiders Sign Amari Cooper to One-Year Deal, Per Reports

The move is intended to steady a thin receiver group.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report the veteran wide receiver has agreed to return to Las Vegas on a one-year contract.
  • Frankfurter Rundschau reports a $3.5 million base salary that can reach $6 million with bonuses, a figure not uniformly corroborated elsewhere.
  • Jakobi Meyers has requested a trade over contract concerns after leading the team with 1,027 receiving yards in 2024, and his status remains unresolved.
  • Coverage frames Cooper as experience and insurance for a shallow depth chart and as help for new quarterback Geno Smith, with Tre Tucker and rookies Dont’e Thornton Jr. and Jack Bech in the mix.
  • Cooper returns with career totals of 711 receptions, 10,033 yards and 64 touchdowns, while some reports conflict on ancillary details such as the head coach attribution.
