The Jacksonville Jaguars extend the contract with Travon Walker. The No. 1 pick in 2022 can look forward to a massive payday.

Payday for Travon Walker in the NFL: The Jacksonville Jaguars have signed the pass rusher to a long-term contract extension. According to the 25-year-old’s advisor, Walker will receive a four-year contract worth a total of 110 million dollars.

A total of 50 million dollars is already guaranteed upon signing, with a further 27 million dollars in guarantees possible. With an average annual salary of 27.5 million dollars, Walker ranks twelfth among edge rushers, three places behind Jaguars teammate Josh Hines-Allen.

Walker was drafted first overall by the Jaguars in 2022 – one year after Jacksonville picked quarterback Trevor Lawrence at number one.

Very mixed 2025 season for Walker

After a difficult rookie year with just 3.5 sacks and five tackles for loss, he improved significantly in the following two seasons. In both 2023 and 2024, he recorded a double-digit number of sacks.

In the past season, he experienced a significant drop with 3.5 sacks, but also missed three games. In addition, he still managed 42 pressures, which he was only too rarely able to convert into sacks.

Together with Hines-Allen, he forms a dangerous pass-rush duo – and should continue to do so with the Jaguars in the future.
