Aaron Brewer sealed a three‑year extension with the Miami Dolphins on Wednesday, worth $52.5 million and guaranteeing $37 million. The deal averages $17.5 million per season, elevating Brewer to the third‑highest paid center in the NFL, behind Raiders’ Tyler Linderbaum ($27 million) and Chiefs’ Creed Humphrey ($18 million). His representation, Kyle McCarthy of Athletes First, confirmed the terms to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Brewer entered Miami in 2024 after four seasons with Tennessee, quickly becoming the anchor of a line that propelled De'Von Achane to a career‑high 1,350 rushing yards and eight touchdowns. His second‑team All‑Pro selection last year reflected a league‑leading 5.7 yards per carry, underscoring his role in the Dolphins’ balanced offense. Undrafted out of Texas State in 2020, Brewer’s rise underscores the Dolphins’ scouting success.

The extension locks a proven interior lineman into Miami’s roster through the 2028 season, giving the coaching staff stability as they chase a playoff berth. With Brewer’s protection, quarterback Tua Tagovailoa can continue to operate in the pocket, while the ground game retains its top‑tier efficiency. At $17.5 million per year, the deal consumes a sizable portion of Miami’s cap but secures continuity. Miami now ranks among teams with a secured core offensive line.
