Trey McBride agreed to a four-year contract extension with the Arizona Cardinals on Thursday.

ESPN reported that the total value of the deal is $76 million.

McBride’s $19 million per season average makes him the highest-paid tight end in NFL history, topping the $17.125 million average that belongs to Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs.

Arizona officially announced McBride’s extension but didn’t divulge all the financial details. He will remain under contract with the team through the 2029 season.

Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray was glad to hear of the development.

“Maaaaan! So happy for my dawg, worth every penny! More work to be done but a great day,” Murray said on social media.

The 25-year-old McBride has quickly gone from a relatively unknown player to one of the best tight ends in the league.

McBride was a second-round pick by the Cardinals out of Colorado State in 2022 and caught 29 passes as a rookie.

Then, he stepped up in 2023 with 81 receptions for 825 yards and shattered those marks last season with 111 catches for 1,146 yards while reaching the Pro Bowl for the first time.

The 111 receptions were fourth-most in the NFL and the yardage ranked 11th.

Though he has 221 catches for 2,236 yards in 49 NFL games, McBride has just six touchdown catches.

At Colorado State, McBride was a consensus All-American as a senior in 2021, when he caught 90 passes for 1,121 yards and one touchdown.
