Zach Sieler has signed a three-year extension with the Miami Dolphins, totaling up to $67.75 million, making him the team's highest-paid defensive player. The deal guarantees $44 million with an average annual value of $22.5 million, doubling his previous contract. Despite being the 29th highest-paid defensive tackle before this extension, Sieler recorded 10-sack seasons consecutively. He noted the significance of both financial respect and team participation, emphasizing unity in football over personal contracts.
Sieler signed a three-year, $30 million extension in the summer of 2023, and has recorded back-to-back 10-sack seasons for the Dolphins. However, he was the NFL's 29th highest-paid defensive tackle in terms of average annual value, just ahead of Cleveland Browns rookie Mason Graham.
Sieler said that while a new contract was important to him, so was being on the field with his teammates. […] 'we're here to play football.'
Sieler emphasized the importance of respect and financial security, stating, 'this is how I choose to handle it, but I hope the message that puts out there is that... we give it all on the line every single day.'
