Now's your chance to own the one-and-only Jahmyr Gibbs autographed extension cord! Net proceeds to benefit the Detroit Via @Lions on X

What happened: Net proceeds will benefit Detroit Lions Academy, a Detroit Lions Foundation partner. The item riffs on Gibbs' new deal after he signed an extension through 2030 last month.

Why it matters: The academy serves students in an alternative-school setting on Detroit's east side. Lions Foundation support provides school supplies, classroom resources and mentorship opportunities.

By the numbers: Gibbs' reported three-year extension is worth $67.5 million before incentives, averaging $22.5 million per year, with $51.5 million guaranteed.

What to watch: The auction's closing price will determine the net contribution to the academy.
