The Arizona Cardinals signed first-round draft pick Jeremiyah Love to his four-year rookie contract on Friday.
Love, the third overall pick of the 2026 NFL Draft, will receive $53 million in fully guaranteed money that includes a $35 million signing bonus. The deal also includes a fifth-year team option for the running back out of Notre Dame.
Love was a Heisman Trophy finalist, finishing behind Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza and Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia.
Love did win the Doak Walker Award winner as the top running back in college football.
He had 199 carries for 1,372 yards (fourth in the country) and 18 touchdowns (third), as well as 27 receptions for 280 yards and three TDs. He averaged 6.9 yards per carry. His 21 total touchdowns in a single season broke the Notre Dame record set by Jerome Bettis (20) in 1991.
