Agrees to extension The Lions re-signed Anzalone to a three-year, $18.75 million contract Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact After racking up a career-high 125 tackles this past season, Anzalone has seemingly earned himself a few more years as Detroit's starting middle linebacker following Monday's signing. The 28-year-old was also made available for all 17 games in 2023.

Totals 125 tackles in 2022 Anzalone recorded 125 tackles with 1.5 sacks, five pass breakups, one interception, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery over 17 games in 2023.
Impact In his second season as a centerpiece of the Detroit defense, Anzalone blew past the previous career high in tackles (78) he set last year. While his floor was relatively high as an IDP option considering he never dipped lower than five tackles in any game, Anzalone never showcased the ceiling to make him an elite fantasy option. Now set to hit free agency, Anzalone is far from certain to return to a Detroit defense that struck gold last spring in the form of two late-round rookie linebackers -- including a possible replacement at middle linebacker in Malcolm Rodriguez.

Leading tackler in easy win Anzalone recorded seven tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 41-10 victory versus the Bears.
Impact Anzalone finished as the Lions' leading tackler despite playing a season-low 73 percent of defensive snaps Week 17. However, the 28-year-old linebacker still played the third-most snaps of any Detroit defender in this lopsided win. Anzalone leads the team in tackles with a career-high 117 while playing every game this season, and he'll likely need to continue racking up tackles in order to help slow down Green Bay's rushing offense Week 18.

Impact Anzalone tied with rookie linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez for the Lions' second-most tackles in this contest. The veteran also played at least 90 percent of his team's defensive snaps for the fifth time in seven contests this season, and he's currently on pace to set a new career high for tackles.
