Sources: Texans, Derek Stingley reach 3-year, $90M extension

All-Pro cornerback Derek Stingley Jr has agreed to a three-year, $90 million extension with the Houston Texans that includes $89 million guaranteed, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday.

With a $30 million base value per year, Stingley is now the highest-paid defensive back in NFL history.

The deal surpasses the previous record, which was set last week by Jaycee Horn, whose four-year, $100 million extension with the Carolina Panthers averaged $25 million per season.

Stingley had one year remaining on his contract that was worth $5.
