The first free-agent domino has fallen for the Los Angeles Rams, and though it’s not a marquee player like Von Miller or Odell Beckham Jr., it is an important move.
The Rams have agreed to terms on a new three-year contract for Joseph Noteboom. According to Ian Rapoport, the contract has a base value of $40 million and can be worth up to $47.5 million. He can earn that extra $7.5 million through playtime incentives, Rapoport noted.
He gets $25 million guaranteed, as well, so it’s a big payday for the likely heir to Andrew Whitworth’s throne at left tackle. Whitworth hasn’t officially retired yet, but with Noteboom back, that news could come soon.
