Here's Joe Burrow’s Bengals Rookie Contract Details

So does he get 36M over 4-5 years PLUS a 23M bonus? Meaning 59M total once its all done? If he is getting 23M upfront and then the rest of the 36 over 4-5 years, that means he'd be making about 3.2M a year as opposed to about 8M a year.

Good. He can pay back Our Lady of The Lake now.

Nice signing bonus. Cadillac time

Cincy should have saved their money and gotten a QB later in the draft to ruin

not enough

Hurrdee-durr...You do know the Players' Union agreed to slotting Draft Choices pay a long time ago? That offer would have been exactly the same for anyone chosen #1 Overall and btw: ur dum I

How are the details on a first round pick's contract even remotely leaking right now? I wouldn't sign anything until the rest of the first round has started signing. And further, I wouldn't take a penny less than whatever the most a 1st round pick has EVER signed. JaMarcus Russell signed a 6 year, $61,000,000 contract including $32,000,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $10,166,667. If the Bengals aren't offering that, I'm sitting on the couch for however long it takes.

The guy took natural ability and paired in with solid work ethic. He splashed in a healthy dose of leadership to top it off. The Bengals saw the value. His parents deserve so much credit for raising this man. Well deserved

Living up to the image of "Big Dick Joe." Good for him. Congratulations.

That’s a lot of Buffalo Wild Wings

One year of great play set him up for life, but more importantly, set me up for life to be happy as an LSU fan.

That signing bonus alone sets Joe up for life!!!

Hey that’s pretty good

So the way it's written: Is it 36M PLUS the 23M signing bonus or is the 23M bonus part of the 36M? It's truly an honest question, I don't know.

Donald Trump greeting the LSU Tigers at the White House speaking about/to Joe, "You're gonna be so rich." GEAUX JOE!

Damnnnn that’s insane for a rookie

I heard the Bengals are hiring his dad

Deserves every penny. GooD for him. Now that he is a pro LSU should give him about $5 million for marking their pockets a little deeper.

A tad more than I got with my first job after school.

Well, at least him mom can get some new curtains now...
