DAVIE (CBSMiami/AP) — It’s taken nearly two decades but the Miami Dolphins think they have finally found their next franchise quarterback.
When Ryan Tannehill agreed to a four-year extension with Miami, the quarterback’s agent told him that at some point, “you might regret this deal.”
It’s not that Pat Dye Jr. isn’t pleased with his client’s six-year, $96 million extension, which includes $45 million guaranteed and $77.7 million of “new money.” He’s just convinced the Dolphins got great value with the deal that lasts through 2020.
Dye believes Tannehill’s worth will be considerably higher by the end of this contract.
