The Miami Dolphins gave Ryan Tannehill a contract extension worth around $100 million but Tannehill never saw the end of that deal with the Dolphins. In fact, as the 2019 season began, the Dolphins paid a large portion of the remaining $15 million to trade the QB to Tennessee. Now he has another four years to lead the Titans.
It was announced today that the Titans are giving the QB a four-year $118 million deal that sets him up as one of the top paid players in the NFL.
While there is no real significance for the Miami Dolphins, meaning the 4th round draft pick is not going to get go any higher which wouldn’t matter because they traded it anyways, but after a season that saw Tannehill start the year as the back-up and then take over the starting job was pretty good for the former Miami signal-caller.
