Jalen Carter has agreed to a record-setting four-year contract extension with the Philadelphia Eagles, according to reports. The new deal moves the former Georgia Bulldogs standout into historic territory among NFL defensive tackles.
The extension makes Carter the highest-paid defensive tackle in league history, a major milestone for one of the Eagles' most important young defenders. While the full financial breakdown was not included in the available report, the agreement was described as being worth up to a record amount for the position.
Carter entered the NFL with high expectations after his time at Georgia, and this extension signals how strongly Philadelphia views his long-term value. Landing a four-year commitment of this size shows the Eagles are building around him on the defensive front.
For Philadelphia, the move locks in a key piece of its roster and reflects the growing market for elite interior defensive linemen. For Carter, the contract adds another major achievement to a career that has quickly risen from college star to one of the NFL's top-paid defenders.
