What happened: The agreement is worth up to $132 million and follows negotiations that extended into training camp. Olave had been set to earn $15.493 million in 2026 under his fifth-year option.

Why it matters: The extension keeps Olave from reaching free agency after the upcoming season. It also gives Moore long-term continuity at a central spot in his offense.

By the numbers: The maximum new-money average is $33 million per year. The guaranteed portion represents 68.2% of the deal's maximum value.

What to watch: The yearly cash flow and salary-cap charges will determine how the contract affects future roster moves.
