The Jacksonville Jaguars announced a three-year extension with versatile offensive lineman Cole Van Lanen on Saturday.

Terms were not disclosed, but NFL Network reported the deal is worth $51 million ($17 million average annual value).

Van Lanen, 27, has started the past nine games for the Jaguars (12-4) at four different positions, the last four at left tackle. He has played 576 snaps on offense and 74 on special teams in 15 games this season.

A Green Bay native, Van Lanen was drafted in the sixth-round by the Packers in 2021. He played in one game there before being traded to Jacksonville in 2022.

The 6-foot-5, 312-pound veteran has played in 50 career games with 12 starts heading into Sunday's regular-season finale against the visiting Tennessee Titans (3-13).
