Eagles' Quarterback Jalen Hurts Inks Record $255M Extension

Jalen Hurts received a $255 million contract extension with the Philadelphia Eagles, making him the highest-paid player in the NFL with an average annual salary of $51 million.
The Miami Dolphins have already exercised quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's fifth-year option and expressed confidence that he can be their long-term solution at the position.
Head coach Nick Sirianni expects Hurts to continue to be utilized in the same way.
Hurts had a breakout season in 2022, was an MVP contender, and made his first Pro Bowl and All-Pro team.
Hurts' contract extension sets a new benchmark for Herbert's negotiations, with an average annual value of $51 million.
