When you look at the contract structure it is effectively a 1 year $11.3m contract with a 4 year $160m Raiders option. 2026 he only gets $1.3m salary, only other guaranteed money is his 2027 $10m roster bonus. The rest of it has no guarantees unless he is on the Raiders roster 5th day of the 2027 league year, at which time $80m becomes guaranteed.
I think it's clear the plan is to not rush Mendoza this year, and they expect him to be ready to start in 2027.
