It was a 3 year extension and guarantees Brady $60 million over 5 years. That works out at £12 million per annum and is peanuts for a player of his stature, I doubt he will be in the top 10 paid QBs this year.
It is refreshing to see a QB take this approach to help his team win a Super Bowl, I suppose it helps when you are already a multi-millionaire and married to fabulously rich super model. But let’s not be churlish, it makes the likes of Flacco and Brees look like the greedy cunts that they are. The Saints have suffered enormously because of Brees eating up their cap space and the Ravens are about to suffer the same as Flacco holds them to ransom.
It’s obvious Brady wants to retire a Patriot and win at least one more Super Bowl and this deal allows the franchise a great shot at fulfilling that.
The Jets on the other hand are a total basket case.
