Packers Expected To Extend RT Zach Tom

July 11, 2025 by Pro Football Rumors

The Packers are expected to sign right tackle Zach Tom to a long-term contract extension before the start of the regular season, according to The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman.

Tom, a 2022 fourth-round pick, is entering the final year of his rookie deal. He served as a versatile backup in his first season with snaps at both tackle spots and left guard before emerging as Green Bay’s starting right tackle in 2023. Tom took his game to another level in 2024 and earned the third-most All-Pro votes at his position behind Penei Sewell and Lane Johnson, per Schneidman. Tom’s 85.8 overall grade from Pro Football Focus (subscription required) ranked sixth among right tackles last year.

As a result, the 26-year-old should be in line for a contract with an APY well over $20MM. The top of the right tackle market has been just as strong as the blind side with Sewell and Johnson both clearing $25MM per year on their last contracts.

Tom’s negotiations with the Packers will likely be centered around guaranteed money. Green Bay has historically resisted offering guarantees outside of the signing bonus; only star quarterback Jordan Love was able to break that precedent. Since he plays a critical position, Tom could push for some guaranteed salary in his contract, but that could draw out negotiations with a front office that prefers to provide players with job security via roster bonuses due early in the offseason.

Tom was a full participant in the Packers’ offseason program, which is unlikely to change in training camp even if contract talks take longer than expected.

“Being here with the guys, I think that’s worth a lot more,” said Tom (via Schneidman).
