Taylor Lewan is more than just Marcus Mariota's bodyguard

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- If you look at the biggest contracts on each NFL team, the list often starts with a quarterback. That could be the case for the Tennessee Titans in the near future if Marcus Mariota lives up to expectations in his fourth season.

For now, though, left tackle Taylor Lewan is Tennessee's top dog after he signed the richest contract for an offensive lineman in NFL history. His five-year, $80 million contract extension that guarantees him $50 million is about more than his being selected to two consecutive Pro Bowls at a coveted position.
