Ian Rapoport reports that the Lions are re-signing LB Alex Anzalone to a three-year contract worth $18.75 million.
Anzalone, 28, is a former third-round pick of the Saints out of Florida back in 2017. He signed a four-year, $3.46 million contract and made a base salary of $809,000 in 2020.
Anzalone was testing the market as an unrestricted free agent for the first time in 2021 when he signed a one-year deal with the Lions. He returned to the team last year on a one-year deal.
In 2022, Anzalone appeared in all 17 games for the Lions and recorded 125 tackles, 1.5 sacks, an interception, a forced fumble, a recovery and six pass defenses.
