Team USA will go for the gold next month in Berlin with a star-studded roster

The price of keeping Jahmyr Gibbs in Detroit continues to climb.Spotrac now projects the Lions star toward a three-year, $68.5 million extension, which would carry an average annual value of approximately $22.83 million.That estimate would place Gibbs above the new deals signed by Bijan Robinson and Jonathan Taylor, making him the NFLs highest-paid running back by annual value.One distinction matters: this is a contract projection, not a reported offer from the Lions or an agreement between the two sides.Gibbs Projection Lands Just Below $23 Million Per YearThe running back market shifted quickly this week.Robinson reportedly agreed to an extension averaging $22.25 million in new money, while Taylor followed with a two-year deal averaging $22 million before incentives. Spotracs model now places Gibbs slightly ahead of both at roughly $22.83 million annually.That is hardly an outrageous jump.Gibbs is only 24 years old and remains under contract through 2027 after Detroit exercised his fifth-year option. His existing deal carries a 2026 cap charge of approximately $5.68 million, giving general manager Brad Holmes room to spread an extensions signing bonus across multiple seasons.Detroit Would Be Paying Gibbs for His PrimeGibbs age should work strongly in his favor.The Lions would not be paying an older running back after years of heavy punishment. They would be locking up an explosive offensive centerpiece before he enters the prime seasons of his career.Detroit also has publicly prepared for Gibbs to handle a larger offensive role. That increases his value, but it also strengthens the argument for giving him long-term protection before his workload rises.A three-year extension would avoid trapping Detroit in an excessively long running back contract. It would also give Gibbs the market-leading annual salary his production and importance can support.Spotracs Gibbs Estimate Has Already IncreasedEarlier this offseason, Spotrac projected Gibbs toward a three-year, $62 million extension. The deals for Robinson and Taylor appear to have raised that model considerably, with the latest estimate reaching $68.5 million.That is the risk Detroit faced by waiting for the market to develop.Once Robinson and Taylor crossed the $22 million threshold, Gibbs had little reason to accept less. The remaining negotiation likely centers on guarantees, signing-bonus money and how the contract will fit alongside future extensions for Brian Branch and Sam LaPorta.Bottom LineSpotrac projects Jahmyr Gibbs to land a three-year, $68.5 million extension worth about $22.83 million per season.That number would make Gibbs the NFLs highest-paid running back by annual value, narrowly surpassing Bijan Robinson and Jonathan Taylor.The projection is not confirmation that Detroit has offered those terms. It does provide another strong estimate of where negotiations may need to finish.The market has spoken.Keeping No. 0 will likely cost the Lions close to $23 million per year.
