Carolina Panthers defensive tackle Derrick Brown is signing a four-year, $96 million extension that includes $63.165 million guaranteed, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Friday.
The $24 million per year average on Brown’s extension is the fourth highest in the NFL for a defensive tackle. It trails only the Chiefs‘ Chris Jones, Raiders‘ Christian Wilkins and Ravens‘ Justin Madubuike, who all signed new contract as free agents this offseason.
Brown, 25, posted 103 tackles for the Panthers last season, the most ever by a defensive lineman. The No. 7 overall pick in 2020, Brown has totaled eight sacks and two interceptions in his four-year career.
He had one year left on his deal and is now tied to Carolina through the 2028 season.
