Where does Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson now rank among salaries?

The New York Jets signed wide receiver Garrett Wilson to a four-year contract extension worth $130 million on Monday. The deal includes $90 million guaranteed. The Jets and Wilson's representation had been negotiating all offseason long. It's refreshing to see it get done ahead of training camp.

Wilson's extension marks the first time in NFL history that a receiver will average over $31 million in annual salary after playing only three seasons. With two years remaining on his rookie contract, fifth-year option included, Wilson now will be under contract for the next six campaigns, through 2030.

Once Wilson's extension officially kicks in, he'll average $32.5 million per season. That per year payday is the biggest contract in Jets history. Wilson will become the fifth-highest paid receiver in the NFL. Only Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson, and CeeDee Lamb, DK Metcalf earn more than $32.5 million per season.

Meanwhile Wilson's $90 million in guarantees is fourth-largest among wideouts. Chase, Jefferson, and Lamb all possess $100 million or more in guarantees. The Jets showed no hesitancy to pay Wilson a premium.

Wilson posted career highs last season in receptions (101), receiving yards (1,104) and touchdowns (seven). Wilson is one of five receivers in NFL history to surpass 1,000 receiving yards and 80 receptions in each of his first three campaigns, per ESPN Stats & Info.
