Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Jurgens and the Eagles agreed to a four-year contract extension. It’s a four-year deal worth $68 million.
Jurgens is now signed with the Eagles through the 2029 season.
The Eagles selected Jurgens in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft. Picked to be Jason Kelce’s successor, Jurgens eventually started at guard in 2023.
After Kelce’s retirement following the 2023 season, Jurgens became the full-time center in 2024.
Jurgens and the Eagles offensive line paved the way for Saquon Barkley’s 2,000-yard rushing season.
Jurgens, 25, did not start in the NFC Championship Game due to a back injury. However, Jurgens played the entire second half after Landon Dickerson suffered a knee injury.
Jurgens started in Super Bowl LIX, a game the Eagles dominated against and defeated the Chiefs 40-22.
Jurgens was named to his first Pro Bowl in 2024.
