    The Philadelphia Eagles and quarterback Jalen Hurts have reached agreement on a five-year, $255 million extension, including $179.304 million guaranteed, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday.

    Hurts' deal is the biggest total contract in NFL history, besting Deshaun Watson's $230 million contract signed last year with the Cleveland Browns. Watson's contract, however, is fully guaranteed.

    Hurts extension includes a no-trade clause -- a first in Eagles history, a source told Schefter.
    A lot of money. But the fact this is not fully guaranteed is not good news for Lamar Jackson.

    Yeah, 5 years $255M is a lot of money for Hurts. I think he's good and I actually liked him over JLove that draft year, but I don't think he's that good. QB market is crazy though... even middling ones are expensive.
    Anyway, good for Philly, they have a QB signed long term.
    As for Lamar, dude needs to suck it up and realize he's not getting a fully guaranteed contract. Not with his play-style/injury history.

    Players who negotiate without an agent can often end up with hard feelings towards the team. I think Rashan Gary is this way?
