Showing some love for the kickers
The Baltimore Ravens have agreed to a four-year extension with All-Pro kicker Justin Tucker, the team announced Monday. Prior to this deal coming together, Tucker was playing on a four-year, $23.05 million deal he signed back in April of 2019. That contract had him under team control through the 2023 campaign, but this new deal ensures he'll be with Baltimore through 2027.
As for the financial terms of the deal, the NFL Network reports the four-year extension is worth $24 million with $17.5 million guaranteed, making Tucker the highest-paid kicker in the league. He had already held this title in the past, but after the Steelers signed Chris Boswell to a $20 million extension earlier this month, Tucker found himself knotted with Boswell with an AAV of $5 million.
