Nick Foles reportedly is getting paid big time.
Foles agreed to sign a four-year, $88 million contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports more than half of Foles’ reported new deal will be guaranteed.
The Jaguars are expected to release quarterback Blake Bortles once Foles’ deal is official, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rappaport. It appeared as though the Jaguars were the only bidder for Foles, who didn’t last long on the free agent market after the Eagles announced they did not intend on using the franchise tag on the 30-year-old Feb. 27.
Foles played in five games for the Eagles last season throwing for 1,413 yards with seven touchdowns and four interceptions while completing 72.3 percent of his passes.
