Ravens linebacker will receive $33 million in guaranteed money, most by a defensive player in NFL history

Terrell Suggs signed a six-year, $63 million contract with the Ravens on Wednesday, completing one of the more lucrative deals in NFL history. A three-time Pro Bowl linebacker, Suggs will receive $33 million in bonuses (a $10.1 million signing bonus and a $23 million option bonus due in March), which ranks second only to Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning, who earned $34 million in bonuses. Suggs' total is the most ever for a defensive player. "This is a good day for the Ravens franchise," general manager Ozzie Newsome said.
