Roquan Smith, Ravens agree to five-year $100 Million extension

The Ravens and Roquan Smith are in agreement on a five-year, $100 million deal to make him the highest-paid inside linebacker in NFL history.

The deal includes $45 million fully guaranteed and $60 million in total guarantees. He’s the first off-ball linebacker to get $20 million a year.

The Bears dealt Smith to Baltimore in October after both sides couldn’t agree on a long-term extension. Smith has been selected first-team All-Pro two times in a row and is coming off yet another standout year where he was named to his first Pro Bowl.
