or until he needs another car

3yrs 17.5 million

Who would have thought Briggs would be the one to quietly sign an extension and Forte would be the one to threaten a holdout? :icon_smile_slap:

I do not mind this at all.

Lance gets a little raise I think there is 8 million in new money and Emery handled it quietly and behind close doors.

Anyone who says anything about Forte is crazy this is essentially 3 years and 8 million in new money.

This is a great move taking care of one of your best performing veterans. Briggs is still playing at an incredibly high level and this is a good PR move for the organization as well.
