Report: Rams make All-Pro Trent McDuffie highest-paid CB in NFL history

The Los Angeles Rams came to terms with cornerback Trent McDuffie Sunday evening on a four-year, $124 million extension, according to ESPN.

The deal for the former Kansas City Chiefs All-Pro includes a $100 million guarantee, which will make him the highest-paid cornerback in league history.

The Chiefs traded McDuffie, 25, to the Rams on March 5 in exchange for the 29th overall pick of the 2026 NFL Draft and the Rams' fifth- and sixth-round selections in 2026 as well as a third-round pick in 2027.

The Chiefs exercised McDuffie's fifth-year option in April 2025. He recorded 63 tackles, an interception and a forced fumble in 13 games (all starts) last season, but missed the final four games due to a knee injury.

A two-time Super Bowl champion, McDuffie has totaled 246 tackles, 5.5 sacks, 34 pass breakups and three interceptions in 56 career games (all starts) since being selected by Kansas City with the 21st overall pick of the 2022 NFL Draft.

The University of Washington alum earned first-team All-Pro honors in 2023 and second team accolades in 2024.
