Flacco gets six years and $120.6M from Ravens
Joe Flacco - QB - Baltimore Ravens
March 2, 2013 - 12:55 AM ET

Updating a previous item, Joe Flacco's new deal with the Ravens is for six years and $120.6 million.

The $20.1 million annual average over six years makes Flacco the highest-paid player in NFL history, slightly more than Drew Brees' five-year, $100 million deal signed last offseason. There's still no word on how much is guaranteed, what the signing bonus is, or what the total payout will be over the first three years. These numbers are all far more important than the years and potential total amount over the life of the deal. For now, Flacco is the top dog.
