Alex Anzalone spoke for the first time since it became clear he was hoping for a new contract, as he enters the final year of his three-year deal with the Detroit Lions. It was clear the 30-year-old linebacker is a bit frustrated and confused as to why he has not been able to get a new deal done with the team.
“I’m disappointed. I’ll just say that. I’m disappointed,” Anzalone said. Later adding, “This is a weird situation. And I didn’t — it wasn’t on my end, or my agent’s end.”
Anzalone is set to make a $6 million salary in 2025.
