The Las Vegas Raiders have reached a massive three-year, $81 million agreement with star center Tyler Linderbaum, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The deal secures one of the league's premier interior offensive linemen for the Raiders through the 2028 season.
According to the reported details, the contract includes a $20 million signing bonus. Linderbaum will receive a fully guaranteed base salary of $10 million in 2026, followed by a $30 million fully guaranteed salary in 2027. The 2028 season carries a $21 million salary that is currently guaranteed for injury; however, that amount becomes fully guaranteed in March of next year, making it highly likely that Linderbaum collects the full $81 million value of the deal.
This significant investment highlights the Raiders' commitment to fortifying their offensive line. Linderbaum, known for his elite mobility and technique at the center position, becomes a foundational piece for the Las Vegas offense as they look to establish dominance in the trenches. The structure of the deal ensures Linderbaum is among the highest-paid players at his position.
