A source said that Tucker's extension is worth $24 million and makes him the highest-paid kicker in the league.
Tucker will make an average of $6 million a season, which is $1 million more than any other kicker, according to a source. Tucker is the league's highest-paid kicker at $5 million per season, and his new deal comes a week after Chris Boswell signed an extension with the PittsburghSteelers.
Tucker, who had two years left on his current deal, will get signing and option bonuses of $11.5 million, according to a source. The source said that the extension includes more guaranteed money than any other kicker.
Tucker told the team's website that signing his contract meant the world to him. I will be accounted for for the next six seasons.
Tucker is one of the best kickers in the history of the league. Tucker holds the best field goal percentage in the history of the NFL (91%) and the league's record for the longest field goal (64 yards).
He has been named to the All- Pro first team five times. He has led the league in field goals made and points since he joined the league.
Tucker has converted 58 straight fourth-quarter/overtime tries and is known for being clutch. He kicked a 66-yard field goal as time expired to beat the Detroit Lions.
Tucker said that he tries not to think about it. It's important to take it one kick at a time. That's something that I heard from my agent coming out of college, and it's some of the best advice I've ever received, right next to my grandfather when I was trying out for the high school team in Austin.
