Baltimore Ravens defensive tackle Justin Madubuike received a new four-year deal from his team, as did Chicago Bears cornerback Jaylon Johnson. Indianapolis Colts wideout Michael Pittman Jr. signed a three-year deal with the team that selected him in the second round back in 2020, and Jacksonville Jaguars pass rusher Josh Allen signed a five-year extension just this past week.
