Jahmyr Gibbs Poised to Set RB Market | Detroit Lions News
Description
Jahmyr Gibbs is poised to rewrite the NFL running back pay scale, with his elite production and newfound role as Detroit’s sole offensive workhorse after David Montgomery’s trade to Houston. Already rivaling all-time greats since his 2023 draft, Gibbs’ value just skyrocketed — especially with no proven backup in the backfield. With Saquon Barkley leading the pack at $20.6M, Gibbs is primed to match or exceed that, and Bijan Robinson’s pending Falcons deal could set the new benchmark. Montgomery’s exit didn’t just open the door — it locked Gibbs in as the Lions’ future, making his contract negotiations a pivotal offseason story.
