GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Wherever Elgton Jenkins lines up for the Green Bay Packers, he will be one of the highest-paid players at either guard or tackle after he signed an extension with the team on Friday.

The four-year deal, which includes a $24 million signing bonus, is worth $68 million and could reach up to $74 million with incentives, a source told ESPN.

The deal will keep Jenkins with the Packers through the 2026 season at an average of $17 million per year.

"We are very excited to be able to come to an agreement that keeps Elgton with the Packers," general manager Brian Gutekunst said in a statement.
