The Chicago Bears and right tackle Darnell Wright have agreed to a four-year extension worth $116 million, per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The deal includes $93 million guaranteed and is the richest contract ever for a right tackle in NFL history, according to reporting from Yahoo Sports.
One outlet reported a discrepancy on the total value, stating the extension was worth $112 million rather than $116 million. Wright, 24, played four years of college football at Tennessee before joining the Bears. The team has locked up one of its key offensive players with the deal reached Tuesday.
