It’s safe to say that Ryan Tannehill’s teammates are happy about the contract extension he received from the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.
The deal keeps Tannehill in Nashville for the next four years and will pay him $118 million, with $62 million guaranteed.
Safety Kevin Byard retweeted Tannehill’s reaction and congratulated the Titans’ signal-caller.
Run it back then! Congrats brotha 🙏🏾 https://t.co/YSGHyBXIEb

Former safety Bernard Pollard was happy for Tannehill, but also pointed out that it’s time to get a deal done with Derrick Henry.
Tannehill and the Titans win. Now get the Henry signed because he brings it full circle. #AndItStarts #NFL #NFLFA

Tennessee has yet to get a contract extension worked out with its star back, which is leading many to believe that he’ll get the franchise tag in order to avoid letting him hit the open market.
