It seems like they have a few options:
1) Ride it out the next two years. He's going to be rock bottom cheap during that time, and you can continue to build around him. If he doesn't continue to succeed the next season or two, you can look for the next guy. If he does succeed, just bite the bullet in 2026.
2) Ride it out for one more year. If he looks good next year, try and see if you can get him to extend for slightly cheaper than if you waited two more seasons.
3) Go ahead and try to sign him now, but only offer it to him if he takes a deep discount. Sometimes these cheaper QB's will take the security of an early extension, so they don't have to worry about a significant injury before their big payday. The extension would start after his cheaper contract ends in 2025.
4) If they see that he isn't going to be able to take them to another level without significant help, do you just ride him till you find someone else...even if it means throwing a franchise tag on him?
