I mean I’m not saying he’s gonna be hurting for money, but you’re leaving a lot of leverage on the table without much upside by locking into a long term deal like that.

Salary cap is still likely to go up a good bit in the next 10 years, 40 mil could be like top 15 QB base money by then who knows

More power to him and the chiefs getting it done tho

And it’s still guaranteed money and ensures if he turns his leg backwards like a Barbie tomorrow he will never want again.

Endorsements are going to make him a very happy man anyways, will be the majority of his take coming from that

I'd be shocked if he didn't have an early opt-out clause in the deal.
