Lamar turned down more money. His stock has never has never been lower after not being able to finish the last 2 seasons. Jalen took this deal and his stock has never been higher. Facts are facts. Lamar played himself and he lost
Jalen learned from Lamars mistake you play the highest risk style possible secure a contract extension as rapidly as you can.
All three individuals in this video doubted Hurts at one point in time lol.
lamar and his mommy are not getting that money…….Hurts dont it
Over paid over rated.
Put Lamar on last years eagles they winning the Super Bowl
Shouldve been superbowl MVP and probably wins the regular season MVP if he didnt get injured
wasnt lamars deal a 6 year deal for 200 mil? Much more team friendly and less player friendly
Jalen I hope you have a great season and Philly fans are going to have high expectations.
Stephen A needs to have his Philly card revoked. Hurts gets paid and he wants to talk about Lamar.
Lamar Jackson?
Lamar Jackson to Green Bay??❤
lamar is way overrated
GoodBye ESPN
Congratulations Jalen, worth every penny
Hopefully Lamar is asking for $230M guaranteed so that he.can negotiate "down" to a little UNDER $200M guaranteed. ( though I don't think that's what he & his mom are doing ).
The only people playing contrarian are those responding to the positive congrats. They are too stupid to understand Howie will restructure each year, the cap goes up, and his new extension kicks in next year.
Congrats too Jalen he deserves every penny. 👏🏾 I just hope Lamar gets what he deserves as well.
It’s a wrap well deserved contract we all knew it was coming. Great job Howie congratulations Jalen. But let’s talk next step…. “Budda Baker” Howie has all the tools needed to make this happen on draft day sell our own 1st round pick this yr (#32) and trade the worst of our 2 second round picks next season (saints or our own) wine n dine Budda money is tight this yr so an extension is hard rn but show him the long term investment in draft capitol n promise an under the table deal next yr wen u have a lil more cap room get this done and the Eagles and Howie will have a sure fire Dynasty In The Making!!!! (Thank me later Howie with Super Bowl tickets for me and the fam)
Congrats to Hurst who walked through 2nd rounder to starter… then to win
NFC championship
SB appearance 🎉
Cmon man… Lamar leverage
5yrs 0 results.
2 playoff losses
0 AFC championship appearance
0 SB appearance
🤷♂️🤦♂️
If Lamar Jackson was an eagle in place of Jalen Hurts do you think he has the same impact at the QB position and do they make a Superbowl run?
To be fair Jalen hurts does have a complete team. Great O Line, a great number 1 WR a Top 10 Run Game and defense. Lamar doesn’t really have much to work with besides a solid defense but even still they are riddled with injuries.
Funny Enough I was Also Thinking About What Does This Do For Lamar's Situation. I'd Give Him 140million Guaranteed.
Lamar Jackson on crack. I’d take that 179 quickly and go to work
Well deserved contract extension for Jalen Hurts, one of the best QB"s in the NFL 👏👏👏👏👏
How do these highlight reel; September to January guys get this much dust?? Imagine what's in store for the guys who actually win something??
Overrated
Well deserved Jalen. Congrats.
way too early for this. can lamar get paid?
The Eagles will regret this contract the moment Hurts proves to be a one hit wonder and comes back down to earth. He's not the passer that Mahomes or Allen are!! The QB salaries in comparison to the rest of the positions, have gone through the roof! Hurts isn't that good! He scammed the Eagles!
Man he deserves every single penny of it wish it was me lol let’s go birds!
Happy for Jalen Hurts on the extension and well deserved also his Agent Nicole Lynn should get her props
Big up yuh self on da pay raise
What does this have to with LJ!?!?
I'm glad Howie was smart enough to get this done before Lamar, Herbert, and Burrow got theirs. 👍 👍 👍 👍
Stephen A. finally got it right.
Just facts without any screaming and shouting.
worst contract in nfl history.
Who cares what the woman has to say
Really happy for Jalen. Lamar should just get an agent. That young lady is beautiful. ☘💚The braids is 🔥. Period.
Who was the other lady with Molly,
🎉
Lamar Jackson need to be PAID BIG MONEY 💰. Ravens total guarantee offer was $133 million 😮😡
😂 Eagles just shot in the foot!! He is going to drop like a tank.😂
Congratulations Philly!!! Here's ur now cash strapped eagles next 5 year outlook. Enjoy.
2023: 9-8
2024: 8-9
2025: 8-9
2026: 7-10
2027: 6-11
Hey!! At least Jailing got paid.
Jalen Hurts – Missed 3 games in the past 2 seasons; played through shoulder injury in playoffs
Lamar Jackson – Missed 10 games in the past 2 seasons; couldn't play in playoff game
Pretty obvious Hurts is more durable & that's why teams are more hesitant to pay Lamar.
Insane amount of money for a one hit wonder who in his massive breakout seasons was still only 10th in passing yards and 14th in TD passes.
Lamar a Diva plain and simple he aint worth the money he's asking for
If I was the Eagles I would have offered Lamar $220 and just wondered what he’d say. I would Love to see Lamar with Weapons💯
If not…. I come back and give it to Jalen….. sorry We insulted You….We’ll give You $250😅
