Jordan Love Signs Historic $220 Million Contract Extension with Green Bay Packers
Quarterback Jordan Love has agreed to a four-year contract extension with the Green Bay Packers worth $220 million, making him the highest-paid player in the league and the best-paid quarterback in NFL history.
Love’s new deal includes a $75 million signing bonus and $155 million in guarantees, solidifying his position as one of the top quarterbacks in the league. This comes after a remarkable season where he led the NFL’s youngest team to a 10-9 record and a playoff berth, replacing four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers.
The 25-year-old quarterback’s extension comes on the same day that Miami’s Tua Tagovailoa agreed on a four-year extension worth $212.4 million. Other notable contract extensions include Detroit’s Jared Goff signing a four-year, $212 million extension with $170 million guaranteed, and Jacksonville’s Trevor Lawrence agreeing to a five-year, $275 million extension with $142 million guaranteed.

Love’s contract had been set to expire at the end of the upcoming season, and the Packers are betting on the promise he showed during his late-season surge last year. He responded by completing 64.2% of his passes for 4,159 yards with 32 touchdowns and 11 interceptions last season, improving dramatically as the season wore on.
Love threw 21 touchdown passes with only one interception during a nine-game stretch that culminated with a 48-32 upset of the Dallas Cowboys in a wild-card playoff game.

Love’s 32 touchdown passes ranked second in the league, behind Dallas’ Dak Prescott (36). He had made only one career start before last season, spending his first three seasons backing up Rodgers.
