REACTION TO NORMAN SIGNING WITH REDSKINSPLAYERS REACT TO JOSH NORMAN SIGNING WITH REDSKINS
Josh Norman became the highest-paid cornerback in the NFL on Friday, signing a five-year, $75 million deal with the Washington Redskins that includes $50 million in guarantees, a source informed of the situation told NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport.
It's been a whirlwind week for Norman, who, as of Wednesday morning was still a member of the Carolina Panthers. However, the team's decision to rescind its non-exclusive franchise tag on the All-Pro cornerback triggered a brief, but ultimately lucrative stint for Norman on the free-agent market.
Here's a sampling of how NFL players reacted on social media to Norman's signing:
