Taylor Decker Signs Extension with Lions

The Detroit Lions have signed left tackle Taylor Decker to a three-year contract extension worth $60 million, with $31.83 million guaranteed. The announcement was made by Lions GM Brad Holmes on the 'Costa and Jansen' show on 97.1 The Ticket. Decker, a key player for the Lions since being drafted in 2016, was entering the final year of his previous deal. His leadership and performance, including allowing only one sack in the last nine games of the previous season, have been pivotal in the team's recent success. This extension secures Decker's presence through the 2027 season, continuing the team's strategy of retaining core players. The Lions had earlier signed right tackle Penei Sewell to a four-year, $112 million extension.
