This offseason has been the year of former Georgia Bulldogs getting paid in the NFL. Multiple Bulldogs have signed contract extensions for well north of $100 million, and EDGE Travon Walker was the latest to ink his massive extension.
On Friday it came out that the Jaguars signed Walker to a massive four-year $110 million extension. This will keep him in Jacksonville for the next five years and cement him as one of the top EDGE defenders in the NFL.
Christen Miller couldn't hold back his excitement after Travon Walker's contract extension
Not only is this a special moment for Walker, but it is for the entire Georgia program as well. Kirby Smart runs a program where current and former players all genuinely care about each other and want to see each other succeed, and moments like this always put that into perspective.
That was put on full display by defensive lineman Christen Miller who was told this news during an interview with the NFL Network on Friday.

Miller's reaction encapsulates everything that makes Georgia's program so great. This news doesn't actually impact him at all, but he jumped out of his chair when he was told about Walker's extension. And even after the news settled in he still couldn't contain his excitement.
Could this be a sign for what's to come for Miller in the NFL? He is heading to the NFL Draft later this month where he is projected to be a second round draft pick. Rookie contracts are nowhere near as large as what Walker just signed, but being drafted in the second round shows that teams believe he has the potential to sign a massive deal like this at some point in his career.
Miller has a lot of work to do to ever get to this point, but seeing his reaction to Walker's extension should put a big smile on every Georgia fan's face.
