Patriots, Jabrill Peppers Finalize Three-Year Extension
4 months ago

The New England Patriots and safety Jabrill Peppers finalized a three-year contract extension on Friday with a base value of $24 million, according to a source. The deal is worth up to $30 million. It's a nice reward for the Patriots' best defensive player last year. Peppers, a former 25th overall selection by the Cleveland Browns in 2017 out of Michigan, had 78 tackles (52 solo), one sack, five tackles for loss, a career-high two interceptions, eight pass breakups, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 15 starts for the Patriots in his second year with the team. The 28-year-old is best known for being a standout in run defense, which makes him at least worth a bench spot in deeper IDP fantasy formats. Peppers has racked up 471 total tackles (311 solo) with 5.5 sacks in 93 career games (79 starts) with the Browns, New York Giants and Patriots.
