Paris Johnson Aims for $40M Tackle Status

Cardinals left tackle Paris Johnson, who recently had his contract extended through 2027 with a $19 million option, shared his ambitious mindset during a recent podcast appearance. Johnson explained that his $40 million reference isn't about the money itself, but about how he evaluates his performance. afsport.lat

"When I watch tape, I ask myself, 'Would you pay this guy $40 million?' That's how I approach practice and games," Johnson said. The current highest-paid left tackle, Laremy Tunsil, earns just over $30 million annually, making Johnson's aspiration notably ambitious.
