Jahmyr Gibbs Contract Talks Heat Up | Detroit News

Jahmyr Gibbs, the Lions’ explosive star running back, skipped Wednesday’s training camp practice as contract talks with his agent and the team continue. Coach Dan Campbell remains tight-lipped, confirming only that negotiations are ongoing. With Gibbs already a Pro Bowler in three seasons and on pace to join elite company—like Barry Sanders, Earl Campbell, and Eric Dickerson—this could be his biggest payday yet. Signed 12th overall in 2023, Gibbs has amassed 3,580 rushing yards, 39 TDs, and 1,810 receiving yards, 10 TDs, in just three seasons. His current deal includes a base salary over $1M and a roster bonus over $2M, with a fifth-year option that could push his 2027 salary to over $14M. The Lions are clearly locking down their cornerstone. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
