Based on previous reporting, it doesn’t seem that Darnold quite got the guaranteed money he was looking for, but he appears to have come quite close. He won’t have missed much of camp, he’ll get $20 million guaranteed, and he’s settled for four years. It looks like something that works for both sides.
