The San Francisco 49ers signed offensive lineman Laken Tomlinson to a three-year extension Friday, a source told NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.

The deal is reportedly worth a maximum of $18 million and includes $10 million in guaranteed money.

Tomlinson was selected 28th overall in the 2015 draft by the Detroit Lions. He started 24 games and played all 32 over two years in Detroit, but was traded to the 49ers last August for a fifth-round pick in the 2019 draft.

The 26-year-old started all 15 games he played last season at left guard, and finished the season as Pro Football Focus' No. 32-ranked player at his position.

He'll bolster the left side of the 49ers' offensive line between tackle Joe Staley and center Weston Richburg.
