The Texans and offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil have agreed to a record-breaking contract extension, according to multiple reports.
The deal is for three years and potentially worth $75 million with $60 million guaranteed, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network and Aaron Wilson of KPRC in Houston. The new pact will once again make Tunsil the NFL’s highest-paid offensive lineman.
The previous richest contract for an offensive lineman was the six-year, $138.06 million deal reached in 2021 between the 49ers and Trent Williams. That agreement had an average annual value of $23.01 million per season. Tunsil, now boasting a deal with an average annual value of $25 million, regains his status atop the salary hierarchy of the league’s offensive linemen.
