New England Patriots defensive tackle Christian Barmore put pen to paper on the historic contract extension he agreed to with the team on Monday.
It’s a four-year deal reportedly worth upwards of $92 million for the burgeoning star defender. That number makes it the largest non-Tom Brady contract in franchise history.
Barmore is only 24 years old and looked at as one of the cornerstone pieces on the Patriots defensive unit. An argument could be made that he was the best player on the team, period, last season. So he was clearly a player the team was serious about signing to a lucrative contract extension.
