The Chicago Bears agreed to terms with cornerback Kyler Gordon on a three-year, $40 million contract extension with $31.25 million guaranteed, according to multiple reports on Sunday night.

Gordon, who is entering the final year of his rookie deal, will be tied to the Bears through the 2028 season with an average annual value of $13.3 million, making him the league's highest-paid slot corner, per the media reports.

He started 13 of 15 games last season and totaled 75 tackles including four tackles for loss, five passes defended, one forced fumble and three fumble recoveries.

Chicago general manager Ryan Poles made Gordon his first draft selection, taking him in the second round (39th overall) of the 2022 NFL Draft out of the University of Washington.

Gordon, 25, has 207 career tackles, 1.5 sacks, nine tackles for loss, five interceptions, 17 passes defended, two forced fumbles and four fumble recoveries in 42 games (34 starts).
