Sauce Gardner’s NY Jets contract extension is trickier than usual

Since the end of the 2024 NFL season, one of the New York Jets’ top priorities has been to extend franchise cornerstones Sauce Gardner and Garrett Wilson. Drafted in 2022 by the Jets, both players have quickly established themselves among the best at their positions.

Now, they’re looking to get paid like it—deservedly so.

Both players have long stated their desire to stay in New York, but money talks. The Jets will need to pay up if they want to keep them here for the years to come.

Wilson’s contract could be a bit tricky.
