It's a monumental pay raise over the rookie salary Purdy made his first three years in the league as a seventh-round draft pick, which paid him an average of $934,000 annually.

The new deal makes Purdy among the highest paid in the league. It will earn him around $53 million per season, which is in line with Jared Goff and Tua Tagovailoa. Only a handful of quarterbacks in the NFL earn more than him per season. Purdy's deal also includes $181 million in guaranteed money.
