Nick Papagiorgio – aka Rusty Griswold from the Chevy Chase starrer “Vegas Vacation” – who took someone by storm to Las Vegas and, like Marcus Mariota, made about 1 1 million overnight, as in the Week 15 opener. Against the Chargers on Thursday night, the Raiders jumped into action after striker Derek Carr suffered a groin injury in the first quarter and was sidelined for the rest of the game. Because the injury happened with three full quarters to play, which opened the door for Mariota to not only see a significant amount of playing time but to seriously increase the process.
Not to be outdone, Mariota signed a two-year, .6 17.6 million contract to join Las Vegas and back up the car. Like ESPN’s Field Yates That said, there is an incentive for Meritoa to approach that if it plays more than 60% of any game in 2020, it will earn a whopping 200 200 million. The payday that the Raiders would have won would have reached $ 325K, but Justin Herbert’s goal-line dip in overtime would have booted any possibility of landing that extra K 125K in Marriota’s pocket.
Don’t think too badly for him, though his base salary for 2021 has now been increased by $ 625K thanks to playing in more than 60% of his offensive pics in this matchup. This means that Marota scored about 25 825K for his efforts against Los Angeles. Not even ragged for Thursday night in Vegas.
Despite the losing end, Mariota was very impressive and almost pulled the Raiders to victory. The former No. 2 overall pick threw more than 60% for his 226 yards, touchdown and one interruption. He also ran for a game-high 88 yards and added another score with his foot. While a lot could have happened to this quick cash grab against Los Angeles following a car injury, this performance could also pay a big price if the se quarterback-needy team sees this Marionota as a potential starter for them in 2021. , It would be safe to say it is on the heater.
