It was only a matter of time until Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was to be awarded a new contract. After all, the team saw what life without Rodgers was like last season after he suffered a collarbone injury, and it was not pretty.
Wednesday proved to be that day.
After Odell Beckham Jr. became the highest-paid wide receiver in NFL history on Monday, Rodgers made the Giants receiver’s deal pale in comparison.
Rodgers signed a four-year, $134 million contract extension, with $80 million (!) guaranteed by March, according to a report from Ian Rapoport of NFL Media.

It was only a matter of time. Props to Rodgers on the lucrative extension — the All-Pro stud quarterback has certainly earned it. He and Tom Brady are the best in the business right now.
