Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts became the highest-paid player in NFL history on Monday, prompting a classy response from Chiefs superstar Patrick Mahomes.
Hurts is due to earn $255 million over the next five seasons in Philadelphia, giving him an average annual value of $51 million per season. That ranks ahead of Mahomes, who, on his 10-year, $450 million contract, earns $45 million per year.
Via James Palmer of NFL Network, Mahomes weighed in on Hurts’s new deal and congratulated the Eagles’ star on his big payday.
