The Las Vegas Raiders signed AJ Cole to a four-year, $15.8 million extension to make him the highest-paid punter in the NFL, Fox Sports reported Monday.
The agreement adds four seasons onto the final year Cole had on his existing deal and it includes $11 million guaranteed, according to the report.
Cole confirmed the news in a quote tweet that read, “raider nation for life !!!!!”
Cole was named to three straight Pro Bowls from 2021-23 and earned first-team All-Pro recognition in 2021 and 2023. He had the longest punt of the 2023 season at 83 yards.
In six seasons for the Oakland/Las Vegas franchise, Cole has appeared in 100 games and averaged 48.6 yards per punt on 374 attempts. Only 30 of those punts went for touchbacks. He’s averaged at least 50 yards per punt in three of the last four seasons.
