Steelers' $27M APY Offer Falls Short in Porter Jr. Negotiations

The Steelers and Joey Porter Jr. could not reach a new contract before the season, with Porter reportedly seeking at least $30 million per year while Pittsburgh’s offer was roughly $27 million APY and tied to guarantees; the dispute centers on guaranteed money and contract structure as the team has been reluctant to heavily guarantee non-quarterbacks. Porter’s status remains uncertain amid back-injury questions and speculation of an in-season holdout, with a potential Week 3 return against the Bengals discussed, and the option to tag him at about $23.1 million in 2027 if a deal or trade isn’t reached by the deadline.

Texans push Stroud extension to 2027, delaying deal past the 2026 season

The Texans won’t finalize a contract extension with quarterback C.J. Stroud before the 2026 season and will reassess after it ends. Stroud remains under contract through 2027, and Houston could even wait to use the franchise tag if needed. With market values potentially ranging from roughly $20 million to $64 million per year, the Texans remain committed but aren’t rushing a deal, letting Stroud prove himself to determine his worth.

Gonzalez lands record extension, looks to slow Smith-Njigba in 2026 opener

Patriots star cornerback Christian Gonzalez signed a four-year, $135 million extension with $102 million guaranteed and now shifts focus to slowing Seahawks receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the season opener—a matchup given Smith-Njigba’s league-leading 1,793 receiving yards last year; Gonzalez stifled him in Super Bowl LX, and their 2026 rematch will kick off the season.

Patriots lock in Gonzalez with record-setting cornerback extension

The New England Patriots signed Christian Gonzalez to a four-year, $135 million extension with $102 million guaranteed, making him the NFL’s highest-paid cornerback.

Porter Jr. Extension Likely, Steelers Won't Reset the Cornerback Market

The Steelers are still negotiating with Joey Porter Jr. over an extension; a report suggested he could become the NFL's highest-paid CB, but Steelers beat writer Ray Fittipaldo doubts that and predicts a deal around $28 million per year, noting the cornerback market has risen but Porter probably won’t reset it, with franchise-tag leverage as a possible fallback next year.

Cowboys lock in Williams with $105.9M extension to anchor interior line

Dallas signed defensive tackle Quinnen Williams to a three-year, $105.9 million extension (avg. $35.3M per year) to anchor Dallas's defensive front. Williams has 41.5 career sacks, 343 tackles and a four-year Pro Bowl streak, and his arrival helped improve the Cowboys’ run defense late last season as the team rebuilds its interior line.

Cowboys face rising price for Quinnen Williams extension after Carter deal

Dallas opened the door to a long-term Quinnen Williams extension, but Williams’ leverage is rising as the interior defensive line market reset after Jalen Carter’s record deal and Jeffery Simmons’ deal. With two years left on his current contract, the 28-year-old could push toward top-tier money—potentially around $34–40 million per year—making him one of the NFL’s highest-paid non‑quarterbacks. Agent Nicole Lynn is expected to press for a market-setting deal, while Dallas weighs keeping Williams after trading significant assets to acquire him.

Bears lock in Wright with record-setting extension for RT

The Chicago Bears signed right tackle Darnell Wright to a four-year extension worth $116 million with $93 million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid RT in NFL history. Wright, 24, has progressed steadily since being drafted No. 10 in 2023 and earned second-team All-Pro last season; the deal, which keeps him under contract through 2031, follows the Bears’ strong OL improvement from 2024 to 2025.
