The Chicago Bears just locked down their offensive line’s future with a massive four-year, $116 million extension for right tackle Darnell Wright—making him the highest-paid RT in the NFL. Drafted first overall in 2023, Wright has been a game-changer in 49 games, helping the Bears rank third in rushing and fewest sacks. Coach Ben Johnson calls him a “unicorn” for his rare blend of size, athleticism, and consistency—even sinking a three-pointer at a Bulls game. Veteran guard Jonah Jackson praised his versatility, and GM Ryan Poles is betting big on Wright as the cornerstone of a rebuilt line. This deal marks the first multiyear extension for an offensive tackle drafted by the Bears since 2017.
