49ers Secure Deommodore Lenoir with $92M Contract Extension

The San Francisco 49ers secured a favorable contract with cornerback Deommodore Lenoir, signing him to a five-year, $88.8 million deal with only $15.5 million guaranteed at signing. This positions Lenoir as the 12th highest-paid cornerback by average annual value, yet the deal is considered a bargain compared to other top cornerbacks like Patrick Surtain II and Jaylon Johnson, who received significantly higher guarantees. The contract's structure allows the 49ers to maintain financial flexibility for future signings, including a potential extension for quarterback Brock Purdy.
