Donald Penn held out of camp but came back after the Raiders, and General Manager Reggie McKenzie, assured him they’d strike a deal – and that deal happened today.
The club singed the two-time Pro Bowler to a two-year extension ensuring the offensive tackle will remain in silver and black through the 2019 season.
Although terms of the deal were not released, published reports put it in the $21 Million range for the 6-foot-4, 315-pound left tackle.
Penn is a reliable anchor on the Raiders offensive line and his 157 consecutive regular season starts currently rank him second in the NFL amongst active linemen.
