Todd Gurley’s new 4-year, $60M extension that includes $45M Gtd is the largest guarantee given to a running back, the largest per-year average for any running back, and gives other RBs such as David Johnson and Ezekiel Elliott a new benchmark.

We have to see how the guarantees are broken down before we can get a final assessment on the deal, but it was smart of the Rams to lock Gurley up before it became a Le’Veon Bell situation.
Todd Gurley has two years left on his deal. He was wiling to do the right deal early and the two sides have been talking for some time. In the end, the RB market finally gets reset with a 4-year deal worth up to $60M
