Titans make Taylor Lewan highest-paid OL in NFL history

Taylor Lewan reported to Tennessee Titans training camp on Wednesday after holding out from mandatory camp earlier in the offseason, and now we know why he seemingly had a sudden change of heart.

On Friday, the Titans announced that they have signed Lewan to a multi-year contract extension. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the deal is worth $80 million over five seasons, making Lewan the highest-paid offensive lineman in NFL history.

Lewan’s deal reportedly includes $50 million in guaranteed money. For comparison, offensive tackle Nate Solder signed a four-year, $62 million deal with the New York Giants this offseason that includes around $35 million guaranteed.

The Titans have had some offensive line issues since they drafted Marcus Mariota, but Lewan hasn’t been one of them. His new mega-deal reflects that.
