Devonte Wyatt Inks Contract Extension With Packers Before Training Camp

The Green Bay Packers are taking care of some business before training camp begins.

Devonte Wyatt has agreed to a three-year, $57 million extension with the team, according to reports. The deal includes $20 million guaranteed, per ESPN's Ian Rapoport.

Wyatt has been a key piece in the middle of the Packers' defense and turned it up a level following Micah Parsons' arrival last offseason. The defensive tackle totaled four sacks in just 10 games before suffering a significant leg and ankle injury that ended his season.

Whether he can regain that form is unclear, but the Packers are showing some faith in the 28-year-old before he gets back on the field when training camp opens on July 29.

Here's what to know about Wyatt's new deal:

Devonte Wyatt contract details

• Term: Three years
• Total contract value: $57 million
• Average annual value (AAV): $19 million
• Guaranteed money: $20 million

Wyatt's deal comes in well below market value for interior defensive lineman, which is a position group that has seen contract values increase in recent years. Provided he can stay healthy, Wyatt's extension is one that will age well on Green Bay's books for years to come.

Wyatt has played 57 games in four seasons for the Packers after being drafted in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft.

He has totaled 16 sacks, 101 total tackles, 21 tackles for loss, 30 quarterback hits and a forced fumble. Starring alongside Parsons, Wyatt was playing the best football of his career to this point. The Packers will hope for more of the same after investing in the defender.
