Brock Purdy, 49ers agree to five-year contract extension
At long last, 49ers Brock Purdy is going to be paid a market rate for his services.
According to multiple reports, Purdy and San Francisco have agreed to a five-year, $265 million extension, making the final pick of the 2022 draft one of the highest-paid players in league history.
NFL Media reports Purdy will receive $181 million in total guarantees, including $165.05 million in the first three years of a contract that runs through the 2030 season.
Purdy's average annual value of $53 million puts him just above Justin Herbert's $52.5 million, ties him with Jared Goff, and is just behind Tua Tagovailoa's $53.1 million.
From team owner Jed York on down, it was clear that the 49ers intended to give Purdy a lucrative deal this offseason. Purdy had noted that he didn't want much drama when it came to the contract, and his attendance at the club's voluntary offseason program underlined that stance.
After emerging as one of the best bargains in the sport by leading the 49ers to the NFC Championship Game as a rookie and the Super Bowl in his second season, he'll now be paid as a franchise QB going forward.
In his three seasons, Purdy has garnered a 23-13 record in his 36 starts. He's completed 67.5 percent of his career passes for 9,518 yards with 64 touchdowns and 27 interceptions.
In six postseason games, Purdy has completed 62.6 percent of his passes for 1,343 yards with six TDs and one pick.

Micah Parsons will attend minicamp, but what about training camp?
Cowboys edge rusher Micah Parsons will attend the team's mandatory minicamp next week, but will he be at the start of training camp? Parsons indicated in a social media post Tuesday night that he will join the team in Oxnard, California, in July only if he has signed a contract extension by then. That was the expectation, with the four-time Pro Bowl still awaiting an extension. 'I haven't missed a minicamp in 4 years!' Parsons said. 'Even though the contract is not done, I have teammates and a playbook! I'm preparing as if I will be on the field the first week of camp! But it's in the owner's hands. I'm ready to win a Super Bowl!' He did not indicate whether he would participate in the minicamp, and it seems unlikely he does any on-field work. Parsons has participated in some of the voluntary offseason program but not the organized team activities. He returned from Spain on Tuesday and showed up at the team facility after practice for team photo day. Parsons, 25, became eligible for an extension after the 2023 season, and he now is in the final year of his contract scheduled to make $24 million on the fifth-year option. He wants a new deal and is expected eventually to get one that will top Ja'Marr Chase's annual average of $40.25 million, making him the highest-paid non-quarterback in the league.

They have a solid roster and were able to make two key moves by extending both Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. There are still questions about 2024 NFL sack leader Trey Hendrickson's future. That situation will need to get figured out and Cincinnati will need him on the field to live up to its full potential. After that, the Bengals should have a playoff caliber team.

"He's an incredible quarterback. He's just fun to watch play. He's exciting when the ball is in his hands," Manning said. "The game is never over. He's calm, he's collected, he doesn't sweat. Out there on the field, off the field ... he's very authentic." Burrow's personal success has been impressive, but he wants a Super Bowl. Manning also talked about that goal and revealed that he expects the 28-year-old quarterback to win a Super Bowl. "There are expectations that come with it, but Joe is well aware of those, and he can carry that burden and wants those expectations on his shoulders," he said. "And I know he fully expects, as I do as well, to bring a championship here to Cincinnati."
