Rams’ Chris Long May Be Richest Lineman in NFL History

Depending on the numbers, Chris Long may have just became the richest lineman in NFL history though the first eight years of his career.  That’s right the former UVA Cavalier just signed a “huge” contract extension to remain a Ram for the next four years.

Here is Jay Glazer with the breaking news:

Rams have agreed to terms in a huge 4 year extension w DE Chris Long.

Chris had 13 sacks last year, there is no reason why he won’t be in the 15-20 sack range in the near future.
