Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers wants out of the desert.

According to multiple reports, Meyers has requested the Raiders trade him after contract extension talks stalled.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport added that Las Vegas has already stated it does not intend to trade Meyers, who led all Raiders wide receivers with 87 catches for 1,027 yards and four touchdowns.

Meyers is due to enter the final season of the three-year, $33 million contract he signed with Las Vegas ahead of the 2023 season. In the first two years of the deal, the wideout has been one of the team’s top targets, finishing second in the metric behind star receiver Davante Adams in 2023 and second again behind rookie tight end Brock Bowers in 2024.
