In 3 years? Probably by the end of the season.

Much much better skirting the cap limit than have conexes full of cash and nothing to spend it on. God, I use to hate those days. Nobody wanted to play here. If they are worth it (which he is) pay him. Figuring out the spinning plate order is an easier situation.

I'm just going to say it - last year there were several times he reminded me of Jerry Rice. If my eyes are not deceiving me and his production continues to prosper as GOAT Jerry's did, this is definitely money well spent.

He is better than Rice in catch percentage. Nobody is even close in that dept. He's 85% money in the bank every throw which is insane.

Awesome news. It's a fair deal with his production and cheap rookie contract. Make him a Saint for life.
