Daily DLP: Lions Contract Ranks and Winning Windows | Detroit Lions Podcast

Daily DLP: Lions Contract Ranks and Winning Windows | Detroit Lions Podcast Jack Campbell got paid, and now the Detroit Lions have another premium contract on the books. Campbell becomes the 2nd-highest paid linebacker in the NFL in terms of average annual salary. That spawned a Daily DLP look at how some of the other top Lions talents rank in the NFL salary pantheon. Quarterback Jared Goff sits seventh on the QB salary list, and that seems to fit with where Goff belongs. Amon-Ra St. Brown has gone from the top of the WR list to 8th in a little over two years with his $30.02 million per year average. Alim McNeill, Kerby Joseph and Penei Sewell all rank high, too. A deeper look at all the premium contracts with Detroit's elite talent shows a definite theme. Everyone is locked up through at least 2028. Many of the contracts are structured with the intention of the Lions and the key young talents working out another contract in either 2028 or 2029 to help make the giant balloon payments more manageable and spread out while also keeping the band together with eyes on a Super Bowl. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #jackcampbell #nflcontractrankings #peneisewell #jaredgoff #kerbyjoseph #alimmcneill #voidyears
