The San Francisco 49ers have secured a key player for their future by signing cornerback Deommodore Lenoir to a five-year, $92 million contract extension. The deal, which averages $18.4 million per season, makes Lenoir the 12th highest-paid cornerback in the NFL by average annual value. Lenoir, who was scheduled to become a free agent after the season, has been a standout performer for the 49ers since being drafted in 2021, recording six career interceptions. The extension is seen as a significant move for the 49ers, ensuring they retain one of their top young defensive talents before he could hit the free-agent market.
