According to Adam Schefter, the deal is a record setter.
Eagles and Fletcher Cox agree to 6-year, $103M extension that includes $63M gtd, per sources. Highest guarantee for a non-QB in NFL history.

Howie Roseman said that Cox would get “great player money”..$103M with $63M guaranteed certainly speaks volumes of how the Eagles view the “Man-Dog”.

After a huge year in 2015 that saw Cox rack up 71 tackles and lead the team in sacks with 9.5 as well as forcing 3 fumbles, number 91 is set to dominate in the aggressive system that Jim Schwartz looks to implenet..and now he will be dominating in Philadelphia for six more seasons.
