The Detroit Lions and offensive tackle Taylor Decker agreed to a three-year, $60 million contract extension Monday.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported the deal, though there is no word on a guarantee total. Decker was heading into the final year of his contract.
Decker, who turns 31 next month, has been with the Lions since being taken in the first round of the 2016 NFL draft. He’s been a solid fixture on the offensive line ever since, never quite reaching stardom but providing a steady presence at the left tackle spot.ESPN’s
The Lions have focused on retaining top talent throughout the offseason. They signed quarterback Jared Goff (four years, $212 million), wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown (four years, $120 million) and right tackle Penei Sewell (four years, $112 million) to massive contracts already before focusing on Decker.
