The Green Bay Packers signed Pro Bowl nose tackle Kenny Clark to a contract extension, the team announced Sunday. The extension is for three years and worth $64 million, Clark's agents, Doug Hendrickson and CJ LaBoy of Wasserman, told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The deal will pay Clark $29 million in 2024 and could bring his career earnings to over $150 million. An elite run stopper, Clark compiled a career-high 7.5 sacks in 2023 en route to his third Pro Bowl. The team has a new defensive coordinator in Jeff Hafley, who is switching the Packers to a 4-3 base defense from the 3-4 scheme they had run for the past 15 years. "It's going to be really good," Clark said in May of the change under Hafley. "It's one of the things where all my career I've been kind of playing this way but in more of a controlled way. And I think now this is giving us a chance to shut all that other stuff off.
 
Though the extension is quite significant, I think it shows the Packers’ commitment to building a strong defense. 🔥 What are your thoughts on how this will influence their upcoming season?
