NFL Insider Spills The Beans On The Ridiculous Money Vikings Wide Receiver Justin Jefferson Will Earn From His Next Contract

Justin Jefferson is seeking a new contract, and his terms will likely be unprecedented for wide receivers. 

In recent years, superstar wideouts like Tyreek Hill, Davante Adams, Stefon Diggs, and Cooper Kupp received deals paying them at least $70 million in guaranteed money.

Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer has suggested that the Minnesota Vikings star could become the first WR to earn north of $100 million over the first three years of his new deal. 

This offseason, the Detroit Lions gave Amon-Ra St. Brown a contract worth $63 million over the next three years. A.J. Brown also got his bag from the Philadelphia Eagles and is set to earn $80 million over the next three years.

Jefferson, already owed $19.7 million on his fifth-year option, could step into $90 million territory. He’s considered a better receiver than the Lions and Eagles stars and should receive more money than the $80 million Brown secured.

CeeDee Lamb, Brandon Aiyuk, and Tee Higgins are keen on new contracts this year and will point to the deals already handed out this season to negotiate more money. The Vikings will then have to pay above all of their contracts. 

Justin Jefferson Deserves To Be Paid Like The Best Widout In The NFL

Justin Jefferson is a bonafide star in the NFL and has established himself as arguably the best pass-catcher in the game. 

The Vikings took him as the No. 22 overall pick in 2020, and he wasted no time adjusting to the pros. So far, he has recorded 5,899 receiving yards, which is the highest tally for an NFL player in his first four years. 

Jefferson missed seven games last season yet still got over 1,000 yards, becoming just the third player to do so in 10 games or fewer. 

He logged 128 receptions for 1,809 receiving yards and eight touchdowns the season before and was named the NFL Offensive Player of the Year, as well as a first-team All-Pro. 

Jefferson has also made the Pro Bowl in three of his first four seasons.
