Wednesday morning the New York Giants and Eli Manning have agreed to terms on a new six-year, $97 million contract extension.
The extension will make Manning among the highest-paid players in the NFL with an average salary of roughly $15.3 million per year.
There are a boat load of clauses in the contract but, Manning is guaranteed $35 million under the new deal which will keep him with the Giants through the 2015 season.
Manning took over as the Giants starter midway through his rookie season. Then, in February 2008 was named the MVP of the Super Bowl as he lead his New York Giants past the New England Patriots.
