Daniel Jones contract: Does Giants QB's new deal make it among the worst contracts of all-time

NFL Daniel Jones' contract vs worst in league history

#3, Kenny Golladay

Kenny Golladay

Kenny Golladay, Daniel Jones' former teammate, was given one of the worst contracts in league history by the New York Giants in 2021.

Golladay signed a four-year, $72 million contract with the G-Men, but was a total flop in New York. During his two seasons at Metlife Stadium, he caught just 43 passes for a single touchdown. He was released just two years into his four-year deal, at great cost to the Giants.

#2, Albert Haynesworth

Albert Haynesworth

Defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth was highly-coveted coming into free agency in 2009, being picked up by the Washington Redskins to the tune of $100 million. Not only this, the contract-length was seven years.

However, Haynesworth was a terrible acquisition, from questionining coaches' decisions to failing physical conditioning tests.

He spent just two years with the Redskins before being benched and subsequently traded.

#1, Jon Gruden

Las Vegas Raiders coach Jon Gruden

The Oakland Raiders tempted former coach Jon Gruden out of the broadcast booth to coach the team after a nine-year hiatus from the NFL. Gruden signed a 10-year, $100 million contract, making it one of the biggest contracts in league history, player or coach.

However, during his time with the Raiders, Gruden failed to reach a single playoff game and resigned in controversial circumstances just three years into his deal.

Gruden was found to have made racist, misogynistic and homophobic slurs via leaked emails, as well as calling NFL commissioner Roger Goodell a "clueless, anti-football p****."
