Garrett Wilson gets Jets payday with historic $130 million contract

Garrett Wilson got a pretty hefty birthday present from the Jets.

The Jets receiver reached an agreement on a four-year, $130 million deal with the Jets, with $90 million guaranteed, according to multiple reports.

Just days ahead of the star wide receiver’s 25th birthday, the Gang Green agreement establishes him as the first receiver to average $31 million per season after merely three years in the professional arena, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Since being selected as the No. 10 pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, the Ohio State alum has averaged 1,083 yards and five touchdowns on 93 receptions per season.

In 2024-25, he set career-bests with 1,104 receiving yards, 101 receptions and seven touchdowns.
