The New York Jets have locked down one of their biggest stars. Wide receiver Garrett Wilson has agreed to a four-year, $130 million contract extension, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. The deal includes a massive $90 million guaranteed. Wilson is now one of the highest-paid receivers in the league.
Key terms of the extension:
- $13.75 million signing bonus
- $20 million option bonus in Year 2
- $10 million option bonus in Year 3
- Average annual salary: $32.5 million
- Now under contract through 2030
Wilson, 24, has recorded three consecutive 1,000-yard seasons since being selected 10th overall in the 2022 NFL Draft out of Ohio State. He helped kickstart a run of first-round wideouts from the Buckeyes that includes Chris Olave (2022), Jaxon Smith-Njigba (2023), Marvin Harrison Jr. (2024), and Emeka Egbuka (2025).
His rookie class, drafted by former GM Joe Douglas, also featured CB Sauce Gardner, EDGE Jermaine Johnson II, and RB Breece Hall. New head coach Aaron Glenn and GM Darren Mougey are reportedly committed to rewarding both Wilson and Gardner with long-term deals.
On Monday, Wilson got his payday. His $32.5 million annual salary now ranks fifth among all NFL wide receivers, firmly cementing his value as Gang Green’s top offensive weapon.
