Details of the Contract
The contract includes a $40 million signing bonus, and Burrow will receive an average annual salary of $55 million. The extension also includes a no-trade clause, which means that the Bengals cannot trade Burrow without his permission.
Burrow's Performance
Burrow has been one of the most impressive young quarterbacks in the NFL since being drafted first overall by the Bengals in 2020. In his first two seasons, he led the Bengals to the playoffs and won the NFL Comeback Player of the Year award in 2021.
The Bengals' Future
Burrow's contract extension is a sign that the Bengals are committed to building a winning team around him. The Bengals have a talented roster, and with Burrow at the helm, they are hoping to compete for a Super Bowl in the near future.
