DeAndre Hopkins, Julio Jones, NFL's Top-Paid WRs After Cardinals WR's Contract

DeAndre Hopkins has been arguably the NFL's best wide receiver since entering the league in 2013, so it's only appropriate that his contract reflects his production.

Per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the Arizona Cardinals made Hopkins the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history by agreeing to terms on a two-year extension worth up to $54.5 million, including $42.75 million guaranteed at signing.

As noted by ESPN's Adam Schefter, Hopkins is now tied to the Cardinals for five years and will earn $18.8 million per season:
