It looks like Derek Carr will be left with the check for the foreseeable future after reportedly becoming the highest-paid player in NFL history Thursday.

Shortly after the news broke, former NFL quarterback David Carr tweeted his congratulations to his brother in a typical sibling manner.

Derek's $25-million-per-season average knocks Andrew Luck from atop the NFL's highest-paid players list. After confirming the deal was done on Twitter, the Oakland Raiders quarterback was quick to thank David for his support.
