The Detroit Lions have locked in one of their defensive stars for the long haul. According to the Associated Press, the team has reached a contract extension agreement with All-Pro safety Kerby Joseph.
Joseph, who led the NFL in interceptions last season and earned First-Team All-Pro honors, has emerged as a key piece of the Lions’ defense since being drafted in 2022. His extension signals a strong commitment from Detroit’s front office to keep its homegrown talent intact as the team continues building for sustained success.
The exact terms of the deal have yet to be announced, but it’s another major move in a pivotal offseason for general manager Brad Holmes and head coach Dan Campbell, who are aiming to keep the Lions firmly in Super Bowl contention.
