Jacksonville Jaguars left tackle Walker Little agreed to a three-year contract extension worth $45 million with $26 million guaranteed, multiple media outlets reported on Sunday.
The Jaguars officially announced the move later in the morning. However, the organization did not provide any terms of the deal.
Little, 25, is tied to the franchise through the 2027 season.
“Walker is a homegrown talent who has grown up in our system,” Jaguars general manager Trent Baalke said. “Time and time again, Walker stepped in when needed and stepped up his game at the tackle position. This is a great opportunity for a young player that we see every day on the practice field, who we believe will be playing his best football in the coming years.”
Little became Jacksonville’s starting left tackle after the team traded Cam Robinson to the Minnesota Vikings on Oct. 29. Little has started four of the 11 games in which he has appeared this season.
The Texas native and Stanford graduate has played in 51 games (21 starts) since being selected by the Jaguars in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft.
