His domination, his dedication and his sacrifice to take less money than his agent suggested.

In the long run he is much more valuable the JJ Watt in longevity and how valuable he is to the offense
Well, the agent was trying to get him to take more guaranteed money, but Tyron was convinced that he would see the entire 100 million dollar contract and not a bunch of funny money tacked on at the end of the deal.

Smart and a great player
Never understood why players or probably more do their agents want the fluff money. All is does is force you to move on to another team. Who wants to change teams and probably a higher tax rate late in your career

no I think he could have done a 4-5 year deal and then asked for 15-20 million per deal after that as he much more worth than 11 million/year deal he signed

Did anyone see on that 60 something yard run by Zeke that was called back by the ticky tack holding call, Tyron was the LEAD blocker 40 yards down field and Zeke was running at full throttle. WOW! Just WOW!
That was pretty much inhumane right there. No left tackle should be able to run that fast

I've said it before, best player on the team, and Zack Martin is 1A.

You can add Lee to that conversation and now Zeke! There is a reason why we are 6-1!!

I'll go ahead and say that he is.

He is just so physically gifted-- he looks like something made in a lab.

And he hasn't been content to just be good-- he's put in the work to have impeccable technique.

They ask Tyron Smith to do things that no other LT is asked to do, and he does them well.

And He turns 26 in December.

It's not fair for the rest of the league.

Isn't he younger than Zack? That's insane

I recall reading a story awhile back about how his family is always after him for money and he actually had to get a restraining order to keep them away. That is the ONLY off-the-field thing I've ever heard about him. That and that he has a lot of rescue dogs.
