Irvine, Calif. • Todd Gurley was the key to the Los Angeles Rams' offensive transformation last season, and the Rams have rewarded their star running back with a game-changing contract.
The NFL's offensive player of the year agreed to a four-year, $60 million contract extension through 2023 with the Rams on Tuesday.
A person with knowledge of the deal, speaking on condition of anonymity because the terms weren't publicly announced, confirmed to The Associated Press that Gurley's contract extension contains $45 million in guaranteed money, a $20 million signing bonus and the NFL's largest average annual value for a running back contract.
