10:15 a.m. Friday update:

There will be no training-camp holdout for Marc Bulger -- and he's got at least 26 million guaranteed reasons why.

Bulger, who reported for the first full day of Rams training camp after missing a team meeting Thursday, became one of the NFL's highest-paid quarterbacks today when he signed a six-year contract extension today that on average will pay him just more than $10 million per season.

Guaranteed money in the extension is $26 million. Advertisement
As Bulger practiced with the team today, his agent, Tom Condon, met this morning with Rams executives to complete the deal.

Bulger was a no-show at a mandatory team meeting Thursday, and faced the possibility of being fined $14,000 for each day of training camp he missed.

First-round draft pick Adam Carriker also will be on the practice field -- some time today.

Carriker agreed to terms on a five-year contract early this morning, but he has not yet signed the contract and as an unsigned rookie cannot participate in practice. The Rams had a morning practice today that was open to the public, and another practice tonight that is closed.

YES!! This is so what I wanted to hear!!

So much for the Rams not wanting to get this done, and the loose speculation that Condon might be seeking Manning-like money.

A six year deal averaging around $10 million a year with $26 million in guarantees is on par with the deal Tom Brady signed two years ago. Good deal for everyone involved, really glad to see this get done now.

Yesssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!

Bulger and Carriker both in camp. It just doesn't get any better than that! Great news!

Kind of tough in July isn't it? :)

Done! Now to see Bulger's ever present commitment in action -- with an added incentive -- playing his best football for the Rams ... WATCH OUT!

Great to hear about this goal achieved, long term. GO RAMS! :r

Hell yeah! It's time to get this party started! NFC watch out, the Rams are bringing the pain to you all this year!

This is great and hopefully a positive omen of good things to come this year for the Rams. WE ARE.....THE RAMS! Watch out in the Pacific Northwest and the Bay Area.

Needless to say, a great vote of confidence by team ownership & management in the players and its coaches! Mark your calendars fellow Ram followers, this is a great day in the history of this franchise!

Go Rams!
