This isn't a "prove it or lose it" deal. It's a massive deal. $60M guaranteed. Rodgers got $53M on his extension. (Note, extension. Apparently you have to mention it as an extension otherwise you're a moron).
What they mean is ... by 2017 or 2018, if Russell develops the way they think he will with this contract (into a top 2, top 3 NFL QB), they'll have to extend him, again, with a hoard of new money, again, before the 2018 season.

No he didn't.
He got 31.7 fully guaranteed.
The rest is only guaranteed for injury.
