Word is, the Detroit Lions are on the verge of locking down Jahmyr Gibbs with a lucrative new contract, as running back market rates soar with Bijan Robinson and Jonathan Taylor setting new benchmarks. Gibbs, entering his final year of his rookie deal and already picked up for 2027, has been quietly dominating training camp while staying tight-lipped — saying only “time will tell” — but insiders know it’s not just about money. With Coach Dan Campbell acknowledging the market pressure and GM Brad Holmes confirming talks are ongoing, the Lions face a tough choice: pay Gibbs what he’s worth — likely north of $22 million annually — or risk losing their elite RB. With five players already set to earn over $20M next season, cap space is tightening, but losing Gibbs? That’s not an option. The Lions’ offense depends on him — and they’re determined to make sure he stays put.
