History

Historical Context

In 2013 Aaron Rodgers signed a five-year, $110 million extension with Green Bay, the first NFL deal to top $100 million. That benchmark opened a trend of escalating guarantees, leading the Tennessee Titans in 2024 to lock guard Peter Skoronski into a $100 million, eight-year contract, which GM Mike Borgonzi calls the franchise’s cornerstone through 2031.
