On Wednesday NFL Network announced Byard signed a five-year, $70.5 million contract with the Tennessee Titans, including $31 million guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $14.1 million.
The 25-year-old was drafted in the third round by the Titans in 2016 and has spent his entire three year NFL career with the team.
The veteran safety is a Pro Bowler and a First Team All Pro and was the interceptions co-leader in 2017. In his three year NFL career 5'11/212 pound defensive back has amassed 235 tackles, three sacks, 28 pass deflections, 12 interceptions and two fumble recoveries.
The new deal locks Byard in with the Titans through the 2025 season and makes him the highest paid safety in the league.
