The New Orleans Saints are re-signing tight end Juwan Johnson to a three-year deal, his agent told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

The contract includes $21.25 million guaranteed and has a base value of $30.75 million with a max value of $34.5 million, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.

Johnson was one of the top free-agent tight ends this offseason after setting career highs with 50 receptions and 548 yards in 2024 despite injuries limiting starting quarterback Derek Carr to 10 starts. He also caught three touchdowns.

The 28-year-old entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2020. He's amassed 1,622 yards and 18 TDs on 149 receptions in 67 career appearances with New Orleans.
