The Detroit Lions certainly have a ton of holes on their roster, but the punter position is not one of them as Jack Fox is the best of the best. On Saturday, Fox was rewarded with a mega-deal.
What does the mega-deal for Jack Fox look like?
According to a report from Ian Rapoport, Fox is signing a 3-year extension that makes him the NFL’s highest-paid punter at $3.775M per year with $7.5M guaranteed.
As noted by Rapoport, Fox was set to become a restricted free agent following the 2022 season.
Congrats, Jack!
