NFL executives expect quarterbacks Joe Burrow and Justin Herbert to sign new contracts worth at least $50 million per year this offseason, per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
"Largely durable, great guys, great players—they will be expensive but this is an easy decision," an NFL general manager said.
Both Burrow and Herbert are eligible for an extension this offseason following their third NFL seasons. The two 2020 first-round picks are also eligible for a fifth-year option to keep them under team control through 2024, removing some urgency from negotiations.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported the Cincinnati Bengals plan to sign Burrow to a "big-money extension" this offseason.
