Jaguars Agree to Three-Year, $51 Million Extension With Cole Van Lanen

The deal rewards a late-season injury replacement who seized the left tackle job.

Overview

  • Reports from ESPN and NFL Network say the contract includes $32.5 million guaranteed and was agreed to on Friday, according to the Associated Press.
  • Incentives could push the total value to roughly $55.5 million, according to multiple reports citing Adam Schefter.
  • Van Lanen started the final eight games, moved across multiple positions, and ultimately overtook Walker Little at left tackle.
  • He was slated to reach free agency this offseason, and the extension keeps him in Jacksonville.
  • A 2021 sixth-round pick by Green Bay, Van Lanen was traded to the Jaguars in 2022 for a seventh-rounder as he worked his way up the depth chart.
