Mere days before they open their season with a game against the Cleveland Browns, the Cincinnati Bengals secured the biggest part of their future, agreeing to terms with quarterback Joe Burrow on a record-setting contract.
The deal, which was first reported by ESPN, has a five-year term and a potential payout of $275 million — with nearly $220 million guaranteed.
Burrow is the latest quarterback to sign a contract extension this year, following Lamar Jackson, Jalen Hurts and Justin Herbert.
On Wednesday, 49ers edge rusher Nick Bosa became the highest-paid non-quarterback in league history, signing a five-year, $180 million contract.
