Defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh will reportedly sign a blockbuster deal with the Miami Dolphins worth around $114 million over six seasons, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen. Suh can't sign until Tuesday when the new NFL season officially begins, but the deal is expected to be finalized shortly thereafter.

The contract would make the 28-year-old Suh the highest-paid defensive player in the NFL, trumping the $100 million deal the Houston Texans gave J. J. Watt last year. Suh spent the first five seasons of his career in Detroit.
