The advancements among the best receivers in the game must excite Justin Jefferson, a wide receiver for the Minnesota Vikings.
Three of the top receivers in the league were signed by the Detroit Lions and Philadelphia Eagles to record-breaking contracts before to the 2024 NFL Draft.
Amon-Ra Street. Before the Eagles paid Brown $32 million a season over a new three-year contract extension, Brown was the highest-paid wide receiver with a $120 million four-year pact. DeVonta Smith was even re-signed by Philadelphia to a $75 million, three-year contract with a $51 million guarantee.
Jefferson is eligible for an extension, after playing under a deal that paid him just $2.4 million last season.
It wouldn’t be shocking to see Jefferson—one of the most productive receivers in the game—be the next player to completely change the dynamics at the position.
While playing quarterback for Minnesota last season, Jefferson caught 68 receptions for 1,074 yards and five scores despite his highly uneven play.
Jefferson will become the highest-paid receiver in the league, if not the highest-paid receiver overall, according to former NFL Executive of the Year Jeff Diamond.
