What happened: The three-time Pro Bowl selection agreed Friday to a three-year, $67.5 million contract that can reach $75.75 million. Agent Todd France confirmed the agreement and its guaranteed total.

Why it matters: The deal resolves the contract wait after Gibbs sat out Detroit's opening practice. It formalizes Detroit's long-term commitment to Gibbs before the 2026 preseason.

By the numbers: The base value averages $22.5 million per year, while the maximum value averages $25.25 million. The $51.5 million guarantee represents 76.3% of the base package.

What to watch: Watch for Gibbs' return to full practice and disclosure of the incentive and salary-cap structure.
