One expensive bridge that’s for sure

This may be a stupid question, but is the assumption that 2028 is a “team” option or a “player” option?

I want to get florios take on whether the lions are going to get cap consiserations for extending goff since you know they were gifted a 1st to take him in the trade.

Goff, 29, had one year left on the extension he signed with the Los Angeles Rams in 2019, after he led that team to a Super Bowl appearance. He was scheduled to make $27.9 million next season, including a $5 million roster bonus paid earlier this spring.

Under his new deal, he joins Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, Justin Herbert, Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts as the only quarterbacks in the NFL to average more than $50 million per season. All six have signed extensions or restructured their contracts within the past year:

Burrow is the NFL’s highest-paid quarterback at $55 million per season. Mahomes restructured part of his contract last fall to guarantee him $210 million over the next four seasons, while Goff’s new deal averages up to $53 million per year, though full details are not yet known.

Yea we should know soon enough… so might only be a 3 year extension. Interesting

Team. It’s the difference between the guarantee and the total value. (of course, I could be wrong) Like, the guarantees and current contract mean he’s here through the 27 season, but the overall value (212m) includes the 4th year of the extension or 2028 season.

And I really could be dead wrong on that.

Curious to see the full details, but we paid market value for a franchise QB. In 12 months Goff won’t be top 5 paid anymore and in 24 he may not even be top 10.

the “cap hit” doesn’t matter.

With a $170 million guaranteed….
he is getting paid his money.

Even if his 2025 “cap hit” was $100 million….
they could just do a simple restructure to lessen the “cap hit”.

Tell me if I am wrong, but 4 year extension means we have him for 5 more years. 212m plus the 30ish for this year means 242 for 5 years is 48.4 a year.
