Kolton Miller Skips OTAs Amid Contract Uncertainty

Las Vegas Raiders left tackle Kolton Miller is skipping voluntary offseason workouts as he seeks a contract extension, with no negotiations currently underway. Miller, a seven-year starter entering the final year of his deal with a salary over $12 million, views this as his last chance for a major contract before free agency in 2026. The recent rise in offensive linemen salaries and other lucrative Raiders extensions have made Miller's current contract appear underpaid. His absence is not mandatory, so he will not be fined. The team's new quarterback, Geno Smith, and new leadership under head coach Pete Carroll and GM John Spytek add to the significance of the situation. The Raiders' decision on Miller's contract or a possible trade before or during the draft could signal a shift in their roster strategy.
