Kraft's deal comes in at an initial base value of $75 million in new money over those four additional years for an average value of $18.75 million, but it has another $17 million in bonuses and escalators that could make the maximum value of the contract $92 million in total.

Kraft's $92M upside extension with escalators could exceed Kittle's TE record.

Tucker Kraft signed a 4-year, $75 million extension with the Packers (average $18.75M annually) plus $17M in bonuses and escalators for a potential $92M total value. The structure gives Kraft opportunities to exceed George Kittle's $19.1M tight end record through performance incentives while the Packers avoid a fully guaranteed market-setting deal given his recent torn ACL. His $26.5M signing bonus is the largest ever for a tight end.
