Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow continues to set the trend as far as major extensions at the position go.
That much was evident when the Jacksonville Jaguars did their mega-deal with quarterback Trevor Lawrence recently. The new deal sounded much like Burrow’s — it is a five-year contract extension worth $275 million, including $200 million in total guarantees.
The average annual value of that deal? Same as Burrow’s at roughly $55 million per year.
Meaning, it’s only a matter of time before someone leapfrogs both Burrow and Lawrence. For now, here’s how the top quarterback salary rankings shake out, lowest to highest.
