Jalen Hurts, Eagles agree on contract to make him the highest-paid player in NFL history

No drama here: the massive contract extension that everyone expected Jalen Hurts to sign this offseason is COMPLETE. The Philadelphia Eagles officially announced they’ve locked up their franchise quarterback through the 2028 season.

The five-year deal is worth $255 million, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport. The agreement also includes “$179.3 million in guarantees” and a no-trade clause. Hurts is the first player in Eagles franchise history to earn such a NTC, per multiple reporters.

It’s pretty wild that Hurts went from being 1) not totally solidified as the Eagles’ long-term answer under center around this time last year to 2) being the highest-paid player in NFL history.
