What happened: Adam Schefter reported that Jacoby Brissett's one-year deal is worth up to $21 million with incentives. The quarterback skipped most of the offseason program while seeking new terms before returning to practice as negotiations advanced.
Why it matters: The structure gives Brissett immediate security without adding club control beyond 2026. His performance this season can shape his value when he negotiates his next contract.
By the numbers: One season, $15.5 million guaranteed and $21 million maximum value. Incentives account for the remaining $5.5 million, with zero years added.
What to watch: Brissett's progress toward the incentive benchmarks will determine the deal's final value.
