Houston Texans left tackle Laremy Tunsil wants to be the highest-paid tackle in football.
“I don’t know who’s the highest right now, maybe Trent [Williams] at 23 [million], but I want to top that,” Tunsil said. “Always want to reset the market. Perfect opportunity to reset the market. Everything is lining up as far as my contract to how I’m playing. Everything lining up perfectly.”
Tunsil said he plans to renegotiate his deal in the offseason. He will be entering the final season of his three-year, $66 million extension that he signed in 2020.
Williams became the highest-paid offensive lineman in NFL history — at $23,010,000 per season — after signing a six-year, $138.06 million deal with the San Francisco 49ers in March 2021.
