Yeah, $45M/year seems a bit much, but I would expect him to get at least a Sam Darnold money of 3 year $100M. Maybe less guaranteed money b/c of the injury.

Jones has already made over $100m in salary from the NFL. His financial future is set. He is not married, may not have a girlfriend (reports are mixed that they split up) and no kids as of yet.
I have hopes that he understands both his position and the team's position and that he does not demand top dollar in order to sign back here.
But time will tell.

Would be nice to get a "hometown discount", but I'm guessing he'll want at least what he considers to be market value which could get inflated by other QB needy teams.
