AP source: Jaguars' Hurns signs 4-year, $40M extension

AP Sports Writer — A person familiar with the process says Jacksonville Jaguars receiver Allen Hurns has signed a four-year contract extension worth $40 million.

The deal includes $20 million guaranteed, said the person who spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because the Jaguars don't release contract details. Pro Football Talk first reported the extension.

The former Miami Hurricanes standout has 115 receptions for 1,708 yards and 16 touchdowns in two seasons, making him the best undrafted rookie to ever sign with Jacksonville.

Hurns caught 64 passes for 1,031 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2015, becoming the youngest undrafted player in NFL history to have 1,000-plus yards receiving and 10-plus touchdowns in a season. Hurns also caught a touchdown in seven consecutive games, the longest streak in franchise history.
