The New York Jets made sure to retain one of their cornerstone players on Monday when they signed wide receiver Garrett Wilson to a four-year, $130 million extension that comes with $90 million guaranteed.
It’s a record-setting deal for one of the most talented and exciting young receivers in football, and for a leader who, in many ways, has become the heartbeat of the franchise. To say the contract was deserved would be an understatement.
Wilson has done everything right since arriving in Florham Park. He’s a superstar on the field, a respected leader in the locker room, and the kind of teammate every organization hopes to build around.
