Good day, Detroit Lions fans. In today’s installment we’ll tackle the subject of tackles! Taylor Decker going into his fifth year as the left tackle of the Lions and mentions of his pending contract negotiations have us wondering what he will ask to be paid.
Let’s just suppose that the Lions say “no” to signing Decker to a huge deal this summer and making him potentially the third $20 million-dollar-man on the offense.
Matthew Stafford is currently set to earn $21.3 million in 2020 salary due to the restructuring of his deal, which pushed some money down the road to give the Lions some wiggle room for other signings like Decker and wide receiver Kenny Golladay, whose contract we wrote about earlier in the offseason.
