The Bengals are very fiscally smart when it comes to signing contracts

Joe will make $1.2 Mil for next year (rookie contract) and $48 Mil for the next 4. So the final number we spend on him for the next 5 years is $49.2 Mil or about $9.84 Mil a year. I;m sure once all the final numbers come out, Katie has set the team up successfully.

I'm glad to see it

Can we also stop the false narrative MB and the Bengals are cheap.

I am for signing Joe, but also know paying a RB a huge contract is very risky as it is a position group known for career ending injuries. If that happens, we are stuck with the guaranteed portion.

But, I am happy for Joe and also sends a message to players on our team and other team players are paid well with 2nd contracts if they perfrom well.
