The Raiders are setting the table for their next quarterback, Fernando Mendoza.

Shortly after agreeing to terms on a record-breaking contract with Ravens center Tyler Linderbaum, a person with knowledge of the situation confirms they have reached an agreement on a 3-year contract with Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor.

The deal is worth $35 million, including $23 million guaranteed.

Nailor played high school football at Las Vegas powerhouse Bishop Gorman before playing collegiately at Michigan State.

The 26-year-old Addison figures to play a much more prominent role with the Raiders, who believe he has a chance to break out in Las Vegas.

In four years in Minnesota, Nailor caught 69 passes for 1,066 yards and 11 touchdowns. He did so while playing behind talented wide receivers Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison.
