Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler reportedly reached an agreement Friday on a four-year contract extension.
Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, Ekeler's deal is worth $24.5 million total and includes $15 million guaranteed.
Ekeler is coming off a breakout 2019 season sparked by taking on his most extensive role to date during a holdout by Chargers starter Melvin Gordon, which ended in late September. Gordon's return didn't end the Western Colorado University product's heavy involvement in the offense, though.
The 24-year-old Nebraska native finished the campaign with 1,550 yards from scrimmage (993 receiving and 557 rushing) and 11 total touchdowns.
