The $63 million deal not only gives the star linebacker a solid deal until the end of the 2029 season, but it also makes him the highest-paid off-ball linebacker in NFL history. The deal provides a guaranteed $56 million and is Warner’s third extension with the 49ers.

The San Francisco 49ers and Fred Warner agreed to a three-year, $63 million contract extension, which will make Warner the highest-paid linebacker in NFL history, his agency announced.

On Monday, the four-time All-Pro reached a three-year, $63 million deal with the 49ers, who he has spent his whole career with since drafted 70th overall in the 2018 draft out of BYU.
