Jared Goff may sign a new, expensive deal during the summer.
The four-year, $134 million contract that the seasoned Lions signal-caller signed with Los Angeles in 2019 expires at the end of the 2024 campaign. Additionally, Detroit intends to pay him well for his services in addition to keeping him around for the long run, according to ESPN writer Jeremy Fowler.
“He desires to be present. At just 29 years old, he is expected to earn around $28 million this year, therefore given his playing style, he will need to make at least $45 million, if not $50 million, annually. Thus, completing that will require some time, Fowler stated on SportsCenter on Sunday.
The 2016 No. 1 overall selection, who was traded to the Detroit Lions in 2021, has had a career comeback during the past two seasons. In addition to throwing 9,013 yards and 59 touchdowns, he has completed 66.2% of his throws. In addition, he was chosen for the Pro Bowl and guided the Lions to a 21-13 record, which included the team’s first division title in thirty years.
Not just the Lions want to close a deal; other teams also want to. Goff has stated unequivocally that he wants to stay with the Detroit Lions, a young team.
After Detroit’s loss in the 2023 NFC Championship Game, Goff told reporters on Monday, “I’ve loved every second of my time here and would love more.” “Once more, I adore Dan, the guys in this squad, and my teammates. Yes, getting an extension would be fantastic, but that’s not up to me.”
Goff, 29, is unquestionably deserving of a new deal, and the organization fully supports him.
Goff’s base pay in the last year of his current contract is scheduled to be $22.3 million.
