Eagles signing Mailata to 4-year extension worth up to $80M

The Philadelphia Eagles and left tackle Jordan Mailata have agreed to a four-year extension worth a maximum of $80 million, his agents told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The deal contains a base value of $64 million and includes $40.85 million guaranteed.

Mailata, 24, solidified himself as the Eagles' left tackle of the future after outperforming 2019 first-round pick Andre Dillard throughout the preseason.

Philadelphia drafted Mailata - a former rugby player in Australia - in the seventh round in 2018, though he never played football in high school or college. He drew into the lineup for the first time last season, playing in 15 games and making 10 starts.

The Eagles are set to begin the 2021 campaign with Mailata, Isaac Seumalo, Jason Kelce, Brandon Brooks, and Lane Johnson on the offensive line.
