With just 30 minutes remaining before the deadline to resign a franchise tagged player, the Baltimore Ravens and kicker Justin Tucker agreed to a long-term deal.
Adam Schefter reports that the deal is 16.8 million dollars over four seasons with 10.8 million dollars guaranteed. In terms of guaranteed money, Tucker is now the highest paid kicker in NFL history. The deal gives Tucker an average of 4.2 million dollars per year, which is second only to Stephen Gostkowski of the New England Patriots (per Jamison Hensley). The deal also includes a 6 million dollar signing bonus.
