That sound you just heard was Ndamukong Suh breaking the bank. According to ESPN’s Chris Mortensen, Suh will sign with the Dolphins for an insane $114 million, including $60 million in guaranteed money over six years. The deal will make Suh one of the highest paid players in the NFL and it’s the kind of money Suh and his agent Jimmy Sexton were hoping to get all along. Suh’s current team (not for long), the Detroit Lions, opted not to put the franchise tag on him last week.
Ndamukong Suh will sign with #Dolphins on Tuesday based off parameters around $114 million and $60 million guaranteed, per sources.
