Jags signing Oluokun to 3-year extension worth reported $45M

The Jacksonville Jaguars are signing Foyesade Oluokun to a three-year extension, the linebacker's agency announced Friday.

The deal is worth $45 million with $22.5 million guaranteed, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Oluokun was entering the final year of a three-year, $45-million deal he signed in 2022 and had no guaranteed salary remaining. The new contract will lock him up through the 2027 campaign.

The 28-year-old has been a pillar of the Jaguars' defense since joining. He led the league in tackles in 2022 and has an NFL-best 357 over the last two years.

Oluokun was drafted by the Atlanta Falcons in the sixth round in 2018. He spent the first four years of his career in Atlanta before joining the Jaguars in free agency.

The Yale product has 819 tackles and 22 passes defended in 98 career games.
