The Detroit Lions and All-Pro offensive tackle Penei Sewell reportedly have agreed to terms on a four-year, $112 million extension that makes him the new highest-paid offensive lineman in the NFL, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network.

Penei Sewell’s deal with the Lions includes $85 million guaranteed, according to Garafolo. The Lions picked up Sewell out of Oregon with the No. 7 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, and it has worked out as well as they could have hoped. Sewell is one of the best offensive tackles in the game.

The Lions have done a lot of work getting their own stars locked into long-term contracts on Wednesday ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft, which will take place in Detroit, starting on Thursday night. The Lions agreed to terms with wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown on a record-setting deal on Wednesday as well that is for four years and worth more than $120 million.

Sewell and Amon-Ra St. Brown are vital to the Lions contending, and now both are staying in Detroit for the foreseeable future.
