Burrow-5th year - pally - 04-25-2023

The Bengals exercised Joe's 5th year option. If you are surprised you arent a fan.

RE: Burrow-5th year - Isaac Curtis: The Real #85 - 04-25-2023

No-brainer. Thanks for the update.

Big jump from this year to nearly $30 mil. Extension won't kick in until 2025, absent signing bonus proration.

RE: Burrow-5th year - motoarch - 04-25-2023

This doesn't mean they aren't working on a deal. Just means they are locking in 2 more years and why wouldn't they.

Nothing to see hear.

RE: Burrow-5th year - tms - 04-25-2023

Good decision. He's worth a second look.

RE: Burrow-5th year - Joelist - 04-25-2023

Hopefully this does not mean problems in getting the extension done.

RE: Burrow-5th year - Stewy - 04-25-2023

I am sure whoever executed this had their finger hovering over the send button on the email to the league to execute this as the clock ticked past midnight........

11:59:59 *painful hovering*

Not good.... Expected though...

RE: Burrow-5th year - Bengalholic - 04-25-2023

Mahomes and Allen both had their options picked up before getting their deals done in July and August.

RE: Burrow-5th year - bfine32 - 04-25-2023

I have no idea why you say "not good". It's what they do. The Chiefs exercised it on Mahomes, The Bills did it with Allen.

RE: Burrow-5th year - TecmoBengals - 04-25-2023

It's a good move. It shows they are invested him as they continue to negotiate.

RE: Burrow-5th year - bfine32 - 04-25-2023

Maybe Tony thinks it's a mistake to pick up his 5th year. Now we're stuck with him for a minimum of 2 more years while they work out an extension.

Hell we could have taken Henden Hooker at 28 and let him rehab this year while Joe plays his last year and then be done with him

RE: Burrow-5th year - BengalFanInCanada - 04-25-2023

A big question mark for that comment.

RE: Burrow-5th year - TecmoBengals - 04-25-2023

Or just go right to Stetson Bennett since he's a winner.

RE: Burrow-5th year - Nately120 - 04-25-2023

This is expected. Other than the hope that Burrow was going to get a super team friendly deal done ASAP, there is no reason to think he's going to negotiate now when the market seems to just keep going up and he may damn well be the SB MVP and the only QB to win a SB for the Bengals a year from now.

RE: Burrow-5th year - Nicomo Cosca - 04-25-2023

Oh FFS

RE: Burrow-5th year - Bengalholic - 04-25-2023

He'll be extended before the season starts. Most rookie QB extensions don't get done till June or later.

RE: Burrow-5th year - Bengalbug - 04-25-2023

It is good. You get the extra year at a discount. Any extension will be the extension plus the 5th year option. It’s logical and correct.

Weird thought.

RE: Burrow-5th year - pally - 04-25-2023

They has to exercise it by May 2. Why wouldn't they pick it up?
