Facing a salary-cap crunch in 2022, the Green Bay Packers got quarterback Aaron Rodgers to agree to a historic new deal.
Per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Rodgers' new deal is worth $200 million over four years and includes $153 million guaranteed.
The $50 million average annual value of this contract makes Rodgers the highest-paid quarterback in the NFL, surpassing the mark of $45 million held by Patrick Mahomes.
There was intense speculation about Rodgers' future in the aftermath of Green Bay's 13-10 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Divisional Round.
