At some time in the not-too-distant future, Jefferson is going to do a market reset.

The standout wide receiver for the Minnesota Vikings, Justin Jefferson, is widely considered to be the league’s best player at his position, and it is expected that he will soon be compensated accordingly. In the upcoming weeks, Jefferson’s deal might be finalized, which would make it possible for him to become the wide receiver with the biggest salary in the annals of NFL history.

According to SI.com, the Vikings are putting in their best effort to have Jefferson sign his new agreement before the start of the 2023 regular season. Even if he has a legal obligation to play for the Vikings for the next two years, you shouldn’t expect them to be satisfied with that. In February, general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah stated that extending Jefferson is one of their top goals, and he was right.

According to ESPN, Adofo-Mensah stated, “I don’t want to be the Vikings general manager without that guy on our team.” Therefore, it should be a top priority. Given the number of different choices that we are required to make, it goes without saying that we have to ensure that we complete everything in the correct chronological order.

In an interview with SI.com, Jefferson described the signing of a second deal as “a dream of mine.” Since I was seven years old, it’s been a dream of mine. In addition to that, he stated, “I’m not going to let any of that contract stuff get in the way of my team.” We can’t let anything distract us from our goal of reaching the Super Bowl.

In the previous season, Jefferson led the league with 128 receptions, which earned him Offensive Player of the Year honors. Jefferson also led the league with 1,809 receiving yards and eight touchdowns. These stats set new franchise marks for the Vikings in terms of receptions and receiving yards, and he passed Randy Moss to become the player in NFL history with the most receiving yards in a player’s first three seasons with 4,825. In the previous season, Jefferson was responsible for 37.5% of Minnesota’s receiving yards, which was the highest proportion of any player or player on any team.

Tyreek Hill, who plays wide receiver for the Miami Dolphins and gets an average of $30 million per year, is the highest-paid wide receiver in the National Football League right now, according to AAV.
