The Buffalo Bills reached agreement with center Connor McGovern on a four-year, $52 million deal, multiple outlets reported Saturday.
The deal reportedly includes $32 million in guaranteed money and it prevents McGovern from becoming a free agent next week. The $13 million annual average salary is third-highest for a center, according to spotrac.
McGovern, 28, is considered one of the top pass-blocking centers in the NFL. He was a Pro Bowl selection in 2024.
McGovern has played the past three years for Buffalo. He was the starting left guard in 2023 before moving to center.
McGovern played both guard positions in his first three NFL seasons with the Dallas Cowboys. He was a third-round draft pick in 2019 out of Penn State and missed his first season due to a pectoral injury.
He became a full-time starter in his third on-field season in 2022 and became a free agent following the season and signed with the Bills.
McGovern has started 49 regular-season games and seven postseason games for Buffalo. Overall, he has played in 94 regular-season games (78 starts).
