Today Aaron Rodgers got PAID by the Green Bay Packers. To the tune of 4 years, $134 million on an extension. That averages out to $33.5 million per season with $80 million guaranteed.
That per season contract easily blows away the previous NFL high of $30 million which Matt Ryan is now making.
Right now Khalil Mack is looking for an extension that would keep him with the Raiders for the next six years. Since he is the best defensive player in football, he would like to be the highest paid defensive player in football.
