DeMeco Ryans' bank account goes boom
Imagine the smile on Houston linebacker DeMeco Ryans’ face right now.
Ear to ear, baby.
The four-year veteran out of Alabama has agreed to a brand-new six-year contract with the Texans that could be worth up to $48 million, according to John McClain of the Houston Chronicle.
McClain reports that Ryan’s deal includes $21.75 million in guaranteed money and is worth $26.3 million over the first three years.
Boom.
Not bad for a 25-year-old with 403 tackles, 7.5 sacks and two interceptions in his career.
As a nice little bonus, Ryans can make an extra $600,000 over the first three years of the deal if he makes it to the Pro Bowl.
