Former Mount Vernon prep Tristan Wirfs became the highest-paid offensive lineman in the NFL history last week.
Wirfs and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers agreed Thursday, Aug. 1, to a 5-year, $140.63 million extension.
The three-time Pro Bowl tackle said afterwards he was happy to remain a Buccaneer.
“I don’t really want to be anywhere else” he said. “It’s pretty nice here.”
Wirfs, 25, was drafted 13th overall in the 2020 NFL Draft after a standout college career with the Iowa Hawkeyes. He won a Super Bowl ring in his rookie season, with Tom Brady at quarterback.
