Philadelphia Eagles — Jalen Hurts
Base Salary: $24,304,000
Hurts was fantastic last season. He finished second in the league MVP voting, and led the Eagles to the Super Bowl. At only 24 years of age, the Eagles knew they had to lock him up to a long deal. Philadelphia signed Hurts to a 5-year deal worth $255 million (over $179 million guaranteed). While no one will fault Philly for signing Hurts, there are questions as to whether Hurts can live up to the commitment. Some are hoping he’s not the proverbial ‘one year wonder’. Before leading the Eagles to a 14-1 regular season record, Hurts was a combined 9-10 the prior two years.
