Report: Rams Make All-Pro Trent McDuffie Highest-Paid CB in NFL History ...

The Rams secured All-Pro Trent McDuffie with a four-year, $124 million extension featuring $100 million guaranteed to strengthen their secondary for Super Bowl contention.

  • On Sunday, the Los Angeles Rams and All-Pro cornerback Trent McDuffie agreed to a four-year, $124 million extension with $100 million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid cornerback in NFL history.
  • Earlier this week, Kansas City agreed to send McDuffie to the Rams in exchange for the No. 29 overall selection and multiple draft picks, with an understanding that an extension would follow.
  • His $31 million average annual value surpasses Sauce Gardner's $30.1 million, and the four-year pact ties Trent McDuffie to the Rams through after the 2030 season with $100 million guaranteed, over $10 million more than Derek Stingley Jr.
  • Procedurally, the swap and contract will only be official when the start of the new league year on Wednesday, as the Rams expect McDuffie to shore up their secondary weakness.
  • Ahead of free agency, the Rams must balance McDuffie's $30 million per season valuation, Kam Curl's $12 million, and other extensions, limiting cap flexibility.
