The Lions signed Decker to a three-year, $60 million contract extension Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Decker is slated to make $13.7 million under his current contract in 2024, and this extension will keep him in Detroit through the 2027 season. The 2016 first-round pick out of Ohio State has started all 112 regular-season games that he's appeared in since entering the league, and he's expected to remain the Lions' top left tackle for the foreseeable future.
Decker said Tuesday he underwent foot/ankle surgery this offseason and resumed working out mid-February, Justin Rogers of The Detroit News reports. Decker appears already recovered from his offseason procedure. The 30-year-old left tackle missed only two regular-season games last season while suiting up for all three of Detroit's postseason contests. Now heading into the final year of his contract, Decker is still playing at a high level.
