00:00four-year contract extension worth a hundred and forty million dollars with
00:07the Minnesota Vikings that includes a hundred and ten mil guaranteed that's
00:12thirty five million dollars per year on an annual average salary basis making
00:17Justin Jefferson the highest paid wide receiver in the history of the National
00:22Football League but not just wide receiver the highest paid non-quarterback
00:26ever in the history of the National Football League as well and Donna we
00:32brought this breaking news to everybody yesterday when the contract extension
00:36came down and frankly we expected JJ to get his large payday at a certain point
00:41throughout this offseason more than likely during these summer months in
00:45here they are and the reaction that you have seen around the National Football
00:50League in the last 24 hours or so how do you feel about this contract extension
00:55for JJ I love it I think it's fantastic you take care of maybe the best wide
01:00receiver in football lock him up for years to come keep him happy heading
01:03into training camp and also the price of the brick goes up every single day and
01:07how do you know this is like a good contract and you know we always pull
01:10like different contracts that we seem like I can't believe this guy got this
01:13much money probably the most recent one I guess you could say where we all laugh
01:16that was Daniel Jones in the New York Giants you know getting 40 million
01:20dollars roughly per year when if he went on the free agent market I don't even
01:23know if you had got a contract offer from any other team that was funny but
01:26you saw these numbers for Justin Jefferson at a hundred ten million
01:29dollars guarantee and everybody goes yeah makes sense he's a really good
01:32player that's what he's deservedly so and also AJ Brown behind him 84 million
01:36st. Brown at 77 million I'm just bringing up two of those guys because of
01:40how much money more Justin Jefferson got in guarantees than those other guys are
01:45we saying he's so much better than AJ Brown or I'm in Ross st. Brown no we're
01:48not but even though he got that much more nobody's having a tough time with
01:51it because if you are considered the best player at your position and you
01:55break a record on salary compensation that's what's supposed to happen here so
01:59who knows who the next wide receiver is going to be but that is a high bar that
02:03has been sent now for a top light top flight wide receiver and everybody by
02:07rounding saying and including myself that's a good deal he's a good player
02:11you haven't locked up for a long time he's young he should dominate let's get
02:15after it
