"The record extension surpasses the record deal given to Green Bay Packers edge rusher Micah Parsons after the Packers acquired him from the Dallas Cowboys last August. Parsons signed a four-year, $188 million contract extension that included $120 million fully guaranteed at signing and $136 million in total guarantees."
"Anderson's advanced stats showed a difference maker in both the run and pass game. Among defenders with at least 150 run defensive snaps he ranked seventh in run stop rate (12.6%), third in run stuffs (13) and second in pressures (85) according to Next Gen Stats."
"The Texans allowed the second-fewest points per game (17.3) and fewest yards per game (279) last season, making their mark through terrorizing opposing Pro Bowl-level quarterbacks."
Will Anderson Jr. has signed a three-year, $150 million contract extension with the Houston Texans, making him the highest paid non-quarterback in NFL history. The deal includes $134 million guaranteed, surpassing Micah Parsons' previous record. Anderson had an impressive season with 12 sacks and 20 tackles for loss, contributing significantly to the Texans' strong defense. His advanced stats reflect his impact in both run and pass defense. The Texans' defense was pivotal in limiting opponents' scoring and forcing turnovers during key matchups.
