The Philadelphia Eagles and defensive tackle Jordan Davis agreed on a three-year contract extension that makes him the highest-paid nose tackle in NFL history, ESPN reported Saturday.
The contract extension worth $78 million, including $65 million guaranteed, keeps Davis in Philadelphia for four more seasons.
Davis, the 13th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, had been set to enter 2026 making a guaranteed $12.9 million from a fifth-year option picked up prior to last season.
Davis, 26, has started every game over the past three seasons for Philadelphia, including the Super Bowl LIX win against the Kansas City Chiefs in February 2025.
He has recorded 8.0 sacks, 162 tackles, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery in 64 career regular-season games (56 starts). He added one sack each in the 2024 NFC Championship Game against the Washington Commanders and in Super Bowl LIX. He also had six tackles in Philadelphia's wild-card loss to the San Francisco 49ers last season.
