The Oakland Raiders have signed kicker Sebastian Janikowski to a 4-year, $16 million deal, $9 million of which are guaranteed. Janikowski is now the highest paid kicker in NFL history.
The Raiders now have the highest paid kicker/punter combination in the league. Punter Shane Lechler received the same deal from the Raiders after the 2008 season.
Janikowski, 32, was 26 of 29 on field goal attempts in 2009, including an impressive 6 of 8 from beyond 50 yards.
