According to Adam Schefter, the Ravens are signing franchise defensive tackle Justin Madubuike to a four-year, $98 million deal that includes $75.5 million total in guarantees and $53.5 million at signing.
Madubuike, 26, bet on himself last spring, and he is coming off a breakout season in which he produced a career-high 13 sacks for a Ravens defense that led the NFL with 60 sacks last season. Madubuike totaled more sacks last season than he did in his first three seasons combined (8.5 sacks).

Madubuike’s 13 sacks last year are the fifth-most in a single season by a Baltimore player and are tied for the most by a Ravens defensive tackle.
With All-Pro linebacker Patrick Queen likely to depart on a massive free agent deal, retaining Madubuike was the Raven’s biggest priority in a critical offseason that will see 26 players test free agency.
