Patriots' Christian Barmore: Lands big extension in New England

New England signed Barmore to a four-year, $92 million extension Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

The deal contains $41.8 million guaranteed, per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. It's the largest non-Tom Brady contract handed out in Patriots history. A second-round pick in 2021, Barmore recorded a career-best 8.5 sacks last season after totaling just four across his first two years in the league. Barmore is a foundational piece along New England's defensive front.
