Report: Seahawks sign Tyler Lockett to 4-year, $69.2 million contract extension

The Seattle Seahawks reportedly have agreed to a four-year, $69.2 million contract extension with wide receiver Tyler Lockett.

The deal reportedly includes $37 million in guaranteed money.

Lockett, 28, has topped 1,000 receiving yards in each of the past two seasons.

Last year, Lockett caught 100 passes for 1,054 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Seattle will have one of the best receiver duos in the NFL with Lockett and DK Metcalf both under contract.

Last season, Seattle made the playoffs but was upset by the Los Angeles Rams during the wild card round.

By signing Lockett to an extension, the Seahawks are trying to surround quarterback Russell Wilson with as many weapons as possible.
