With players chosen in the 2022 NFL Draft having finished their third regular season, it's decision time on fifth-year options for the class' first-rounders.
All drafted rookies are given four-year contracts to begin their careers -- and teams have the option to extend that pact for a fifth year with players selected in Round 1. Former Vikings safety Lewis Cine is the only player of the 32 first-round picks ineligible for a fifth-year option after Minnesota released him before the 2024 season.
The fifth-year option window for the Class of 2022 opened Jan. 6, with the final deadline set for May 1.
NFL.com is tracking each team's decision leading up to the deadline.
Jacksonville exercised Walker's fifth-year option on April 7.
Stingley's fifth-year option was picked up upon him signing a three-year extension with Houston on March 17. Stingley is under contract through the 2029 campaign.
