The NFL season is still a few months away, but the New England Patriots have been very busy in the off season. And yesterday, they extended one of Tom Brady's favorite targets.

New England and wideout Julian Edelman have reached an agreement on a multiyear contract extension.

It's a two-year deal worth $11 million with $9 million in total guarantees, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported. Garafolo adds the deal comes with a $5 million signing bonus and an addition $4 million Edelman can earn in incentives.

Edelman was set to earn $3 million in base salary in 2017, entering the final year of his four-year deal signed in 2014.
