Standout defensive tackle Milton Williams posted his initial reaction on social media after agreeing to terms on a four-year, $104 million deal with the New England Patriots on Monday.
It's a historic contract that will make him the highest-paid player in franchise history, surpassing legendary quarterback Tom Brady on a deal reportedly worth about $26 million per year. The Patriots upped their contract offer when it initially appeared like Williams would sign with the Carolina Panthers.
They were willing to overpay for talent this year in an effort to improve the overall roster.
