Over the last decade, Texas A&M has sent dozens of football players to the NFL in nearly every position, while a select number of alumni represent the League, including Baltimore Ravens star defensive lineman Justin Madubuike.
Finishing his fourth season with the Ravens, Madubuike recorded 56 tackles (38 solo tackles), 13 sacks, and two forced fumbles. This led to the all-important contract-related offseason as pressure mounted on the organization to make a deal with one of their top defensive playmakers after he was named to his first Pro Bowl and Second-team All-Pro at season’s end.
After it was revealed that the Ravens franchise tagged Madubuike in hopes of completing a long-term deal, ESPN reporter Adam Schefter reported that the deal had been completed. The two parties agreed to a massive four-year, $98 million deal, which includes $75.5 million in guarantees and $53.5 million at signing.

Following former Texas A&M wide receiver and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans’s two-year extension with Tampa Bay, former A&M football alums have now totaled $150 million and and $110 million in guarantees, so to quote Good Bull Hunting’s Robert Behrens, it’s a good week to be an Aggie!
