Alan Park, Mich. , Lions Linebacker Alex azalone Detroit wants to complete the career of his game, but admits to be “disappointed” how his contract negotiations have gone to this offsen so far.
Azalone, who is working with a hamstring injury, has not practiced yet, but was seen walking on the sideline on the day 3 of the Team-Jari Gear on the day of 3 of the training camp.
“I am disappointed, I will just say this. I am disappointed,” Anjalon said about his contract talks on Tuesday.
However, the 30-year-old has expressed a desire to reach a new contract, as he enters a contract of $ 18.75 million in his current three-year final year, signed in 2023, he does not guess to sit out of any regular-session game due to the concerns.
However, he finds the situation strange due to his history with Lions in the last four sessions, during which he was an important piece of reconstruction of the team.
“Surely. It’s a strange position and was not at the end of my end or my agent,” Angelon said while talking to reporters for the first time.
Anzalone will not go into full details about any ongoing discussion, but it seems that it is underpaid relative to other linebackers in NFL. In 2024, he started in all 10 appearances, while the team’s fourth-fourth tackle (63) -The logging to the seven.
“I want to retire a lion. I want that opportunity,” Angelon said, “How do I feel.”
On Sunday, Lions head coach Dan Campbell said he refused to assume that not practicing Angelon is a part of the “hold-in” situation due to contract issues. And there is a chance that Angelon can potentially return to the practice area without a new deal, but his intentions are clear because he helps Detroit win a super bowl.
“I put a lot here in my time and are living here as a four -time captain and my colleagues and as the city,” Angelon said. “You can list all reasons, but it’s only important to me. I think I love this place, and I want that opportunity.”
Lion all-pro safety Kerby Joseph Angelon is a great fan, and he has a role on defense, and says that he “whatever he needs to do, he is best and it’s just that.”
