Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has been urged by Rob Gronkowski to stick with his 'Tom Brady plan' and consider his team-mates when signing a contract extension.
Burrow is the latest quarterback to be in negotiations for a bumper contract extension, in an off-season where both Jalen Hurts and Lamar Jackson have broken records when signing new deals for the Philadelphia Eagles and Baltimore Ravens respectively. Burrow and Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert are the next stars in line for an extension, but the Bengals star may not demand as much as his peers.
Brady famously opted out of mammoth pay days with the New England Patriots as he ensured there was a healthy salary cap to build a solid team around him. Burrow already has a talented group at the Bengals, and Gronkowski has offered some extra advice to the 26-year-old.
