Tyrann Mathieu has come a long way in a short time in the NFL—from a risky third-round pick in the 2013 NFL draft to arguably the best defensive back in the NFL.
The Arizona Cardinals made sure on Tuesday that there won't be any contract-year drama with Mathieu, and while the Redbirds just sank a lot of guaranteed money into a player who already has two ACL tears, it's hard to argue that Mathieu isn't worth every penny.
As ESPN's Adam Schefter tweeted, the Cardinals have agreed to terms with Mathieu on a five-year, $62.
