The one thing to remember about deals unofficially done during the free-agency negotiating period is that they’re not officially done until they’re officially done.
The contract between the Raiders and quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is not officially done.
The team actually delayed Thursday’s scheduled press conference while the deal is finalized. The expectations continues to be that it will be, perhaps by tonight.
The press conference is expected to happen on Friday.
There’s currently no reason to think the deal won’t be officially done. But, for now, it’s not officially done.
