The Jaguars lock up breakout tight end Brenton Strange with a new contract extension
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — The Jacksonville Jaguars announced Wednesday they have agreed to a contract extension with Brenton Strange, making sure to keep the tight end coming off the best season of his career.
The Jaguars did not share terms of the deal. The NFL Network reported the deal is worth up to $48 million with $25 million guaranteed.
The 6-foot-4 Strange was the 61st pick overall out of Penn State in 2023. In his first year with new coach Liam Coen, Strange started all 12 games he played last season with 46 catches for 540 yards and three touchdowns. He has started 26 of 43 games played in his career with 91 receptions for 986 yards and six TDs.
The Jaguars also added Texas A&M tight end Nate Boerkircher and Tanner Koziol of Houston in the draft in April. Reaching an extension with Strange was a top priority going into Coen’s second season.
