The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have locked in their left tackle Tristin Wirfs for the future, and they made NFL history while doing it. Multiple reports say Wirfs and the Bucs have reached an agreement on a five-year extension worth a whopping $140.63 million, which now makes him the highest-paid offensive lineman in NFL history. NFL Network reported Wirfs’ extension includes more than $88 million fully guaranteed as well. As for Wirfs, his $28.1 million per year extension slightly passes the $28 million per year the Detroit Lions gave their left tackle, Penei Sewell. However, the 25-year-old has earned the right to be the highest-paid left tackle in the game given his track record.
