Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet agreed to a four-year, $50 million extension, ESPN reported Wednesday.
The deal includes $32.8 million guaranteed and $20 million in new first-year cash, per the report.
Kmet, 24, led the Bears in receptions (50), receiving yards (544) and touchdown catches (seven) in 2022.
He has played in all 50 games (43 starts) since Chicago drafted him in the second round in 2020.
This is the first long-term extension handed out by the Bears since Ryan Poles became general manager in January 2022.
Chicago opened training camp Wednesday and will kick off the regular season on Sept. 10 against the visiting Green Bay Packers.
