They restructured flacco with a 3 year extension:

Ravens signed QB Joe Flacco to a three-year, $66.4 million extension through 2021.
The deal includes a whopping $40 million signing bonus, bypassing Drew Brees' $37 million signing bonus for the largest in NFL history. The Ravens had to do something about Flacco's gargantuan costs over the next two years, so it was necessary to extend his deal three more seasons in order to alleviate Flacco's $28.55 million and $31.15 million cap hits in 2016 and 2017. Flacco is now under contract through his age-36 season. The move gives GM Ozzie Newsome breathing room for free agency and could pave the way for Baltimore to re-sign G/T Kelechi Osemele to a big deal. Mar 2 -
