Joe Burrow and Nick Bosa Communicated Regularly During Extension Talks
CINCINNATI — The Bengals recently signed Joe Burrow to a five-year, $275 million contract extension. Their star quarterback is now under contract for the next five seasons.
His agent Brian Ayrault negotiated the deal. Ayrault also negotiated Nick Bosa's five-year, $170 million extension with the 49ers.
Burrow and Bosa were college teammates for two seasons at Ohio State and are still good friends. They communicated regularly during negotiations.
“It was interesting,” Bosa said via 95.7 The Game. “We would shoot texts back and forth and be like, ‘You almost there? You almost there?’ A lot of it was not much update for weeks on end. Finally, he sent me the eyes emoji and I knew it was time for him. I forget what I sent him when I got it. But it was cool.”
Burrow and Bosa signed for a combined $445 million with $341.6 million guaranteed. Ayrault did his job and got two of his top clients paid before the start of the season.
