HOUSTON -- The Texans have signed outside linebacker Whitney Mercilus to a four-year, $54 million contract extension that includes $28.5 million guaranteed, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

And there's the only really pertinent number for any NFL contract these days.
28.5 M over four years not too bad.
I wonder if this was the kind of money they were offering JDC before GM O'Brien shipped him off to Seattle for peanuts ? And I wonder what kind of money Clowney actually ends up getting in his upcoming free agency after a couple of prime time spectacular games for the Seahawks but also lots of time being sidelined due to his injuries ?
