Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love has agreed to terms on a four-year
contract extension worth $220 million, a person familiar with the deal said
Friday.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because
the deal has not been announced.
Love's new deal includes a $75 million signing bonus and $155 million in
guarantees.
The new deal comes after Love led the NFL's youngest team to a 10-9 record and
playoff berth last season in his first year as a starter while stepping up to
the challenge of replacing four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers, who was traded to the
New York Jets in April 2023.
NFL Network first reported Love's deal. ESPN first reported the amount of the
signing bonus and guaranteed money.
Reports of Love's extension came the same day that Miami's Tua Tagovailoa
agreed on a four-year extension worth $212.4 million. Detroit's Jared Goff
signed a four-year, $212 million extension with $170 million guaranteed, and
Jacksonville's Trevor Lawrence agreed to a five-year, $275 million extension
with $142 million guaranteed earlier in the offseason.
The 25-year-old Love hadn't been practicing with the Packers in training camp
this week while the contract talks were unresolved, though he had been
attending workouts and was participating in all other team activities. Love's
contract had been set to expire at the end of the upcoming season.
