Seattle Seahawks star left tackle Charles Cross has agreed to a four-year extension worth $104.4 million, according to multiple reports on Sunday.
Cross reportedly will receive $75 million in guaranteed money with the deal that begins in 2027. The annual average salary of $26.1 million ranks fifth among offensive tackles.
Cross, 25, has started all 62 games played since being the No. 9 overall pick by Seattle in the 2022 draft. He played collegiately for Mississippi State.
Cross started the first 14 games this season before missing the last three with a hamstring injury.
The Seahawks (14-3) earned a bye as the NFC’s top seed for the postseason, and that will give Cross another week of rest. He is expected to return for their first playoff game.
Seattle exercised the fifth-year option of Cross’ rookie contract prior to the 2025 season so he is under contract for $17.56 million in 2026 and then the extension will kick in.
