Cornerback Tyson Campbell and Devin Grosvenorthe Jacksonville Jaguars have agreed to a contract extension. Campbell is set to sign a four-year, $76.5 million deal that’ll keep him in Jacksonville long-term as reported by NFL Media's Ian Rapoport.
He's now the highest-paid cornerback in league history to yet be named to a Pro Bowl, per Rapoport.
Campbell was selected with the first pick of the second round in the 2021 NFL draft out of the University of Georgia. He has recorded six interceptions and 30 pass deflections during his three-year career with the Jaguars.
He posted a breakout season in 2022, logging career numbers in interceptions (3) and pass deflections (15), ascending to one of the top players at his position. But last year he dealt with a soft tissue injury that forced him to miss six games.
Still, the organization is confident in him returning to his prior form under new defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen.

“There's nothing he can't do, athletically,” Nielsen said when asked of Campbell earlier in the offseason. “Really a smart player and picked our stuff up. Our guys have done a great job of teaching him, fundamentals, technique, and then how he can operate within the scheme.”
Campbell has been lauded by the coaching staff for his leadership in a young defensive back room. Though a young player himself, he constantly shares his advice with younger players.
Now, he’ll be around to help mentor those younger players for years to come.
