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.
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.

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.
BREAKING: Buffalo Bills Release Notable Wide Receiver In Surprising Roster Cutdown
The Buffalo Bills have made a change to their wide receiver room this week, cutting a veteran in a move made this Thursday.
The team took to social media to announce WR Quintez Cephus’s release and safety Dee Delaney’s signing.
“We’ve signed S Dee Delaney and released WR Quintez Cephus,” the Bills shared via Twitter/X.
Cephus joined the Bills as a free agent at the end of last month, having returned from an indefinite suspension that cost him the entire 2023 season. The 26-year-old was recently reinstated after a ban for violating the NFL’s gambling policy, but he will need to find another team following this latest development.
The former Wisconsin star played 22 games for the Detroit Lions between 2020-2022, making 37 catches for 568 yards and four touchdowns on 60 targets.
He registered 15 yards in three games before a foot injury forced him to the injured reserve, ending his campaign prematurely in October 2022.
Following his return to the league, Cephus appeared to find the perfect team, given that the Buffalo Bills could use all the receiving help they could get in the wake of Stefon Diggs’ and Gabe Davis’ departures.
However, the team signed former Kansas City Chiefs wideout Marquez Valdes-Scantling to a one-year deal this week, so he is now set to search for a new home.
The Bills have also signed Curtis Samuel to a three-year deal earlier in the year, also drafting Keon Coleman with the No. 33 overall pick after trading down in a deal with the Chiefs.
