Overview

  • The extension, worth up to $92 million, secures the former fourth-round pick through 2028 as he enters the final year of his rookie contract.
  • Tom’s $30.2 million signing bonus is the largest ever granted to an offensive lineman and sets a new benchmark for the position.
  • With a $22 million average per season, Tom ranks among the top four highest-paid right tackles in the NFL.
  • As the first member of Green Bay’s 2022 draft class to earn a second contract, Tom’s deal highlights the early payoff from that cohort.
  • The move follows offseason additions such as guard Aaron Banks and rookie Jordan Morgan as the Packers reinforce their offensive front.
