The Pittsburgh Steelers weren’t able to retain QB Justin Fields in free agency this year as the former first-round draft pick of the Chicago Bears agreed to a two-year contract with the New York Jets on Monday. With Fields now poised to sign his new deal, details related to the two-year, $40 million contract have surfaced.
According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, Fields’ contract is a quite simple one. For starters, it includes a 2025 base salary of $5 million, which is fully guaranteed. Fields’ 2026 base salary is listed at $20 million with $10 million also fully guaranteed.
