Jalen Hurts became the highest-paid player in NFL history on Monday when he agreed to a five-year, $255 million contract with the Eagles.
The star quarterback is due to pocket $51 million in average annual salary, prompting a brilliant reaction on Twitter from his agent, Nicole Lynn.
Lynn celebrated the record-setting contract by re-surfacing one of her old tweets. Back in January, while working on Hurts’s megadeal, Lynn asked her Twitter followers where she could locate a Brinks truck, indicating that Philadelphia’s quarterback would be in line for a gargantuan payday.
She was right on the money with that prediction, and she let her followers know that she successfully managed to track down one of the money-carrying vehicles after Hurts inked his new deal.
“All good. Found one!” Lynn wrote on Twitter on Monday afternoon.

Hurts led the Eagles to a Super Bowl appearance last season. In doing so, he helped Lynn become the first Black woman to represent a Super Bowl quarterback. Add in the largest contract in league history, and the 34-year-old has quickly built herself an impressive résumé.
Considering that her partnership with Hurts started via an Instagram DM ahead of the 2020 NFL draft, their journey to this point has been nothing short of remarkable.
Now, Lynn is celebrating the massive contract she negotiated for her client, having locked Hurts in with the Eagles for the next half decade.
