The Tennessee Titans and Peter Skoronski agreed to a four-year, $100 million contract extension with $88 million guaranteed, locking in one of the NFL's most reliable young linemen and giving him the league's top pay at guard. Skoronski, drafted by the Titans with the No. 11 pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, said the deal is a blessing and that he is ready to get back to work.
The timing matters because the contract immediately changes Skoronski's standing in the market. At $25 million per year on average, the deal edges past Dallas' Tyler Smith and his $96 million contract, placing Skoronski at the top of the guard market on annual value while also giving the Titans a core piece at a position that has become harder to stabilize around him.
Skoronski has started 47 consecutive games for the Titans and has not missed a snap over the past two seasons, a stretch that has made him central to a line that has seen more turnover at tackle and center than almost anywhere else. In 2025, he graded out as the team's best offensive player and ranked as the NFL's second-best guard by pass blocking grade per Pro Football Focus, numbers that help explain why the Titans treated the extension as more than a reward.
There is still one detail the agreement leaves open from the outside: how the $100 million and the $88 million guaranteed are spread across the four seasons. What is clear is that the Titans have tied themselves to a player they see as a cornerstone, and Skoronski has tied his future to a franchise he said he wanted to represent from the moment he arrived. "I love this organization, I love this city, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to continue representing this franchise," he said, adding that he appreciates the faith shown in him and is "ready to get back to work."
General manager Mike Borgonzi called Skoronski a player the organization could not be happier to keep in Nashville, and the deal says the Titans intend to build around that kind of dependability. For Skoronski, the next chapter is not about arrival anymore. It is about proving that the highest-paid guard in the NFL can keep playing like the player who earned the title.
