There is no shortage of former Ohio State football players in the NFL and like most Buckeye fans, we love to follow the alum during their next journey. The most recent NFL news dealing with a former Ohio State stud is in regard to former offensive tackle, Taylor Decker.
Decker is already the player on the longest tenured player on the Detroit Lions roster and his most recent extension should only allow him to grow that legacy. Decker and the Lions agreed to a three-year extension worth $60 million that includes $31.83 million in guarantees.
At only 29, he still has more than few years left to continue his dominance for Detroit. Buckeye fans will remember his tenure in Columbus as a three-year starter who earned All-American honors before being selected in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft.
Taylor Decker is grateful and emotional talking about just how aware he is that not everybody gets to spend their career with one team. 🥹 pic.twitter.com/cpq34fgITt
