YardBarker - 10 days ago - It is fitting that the Detroit Lions and wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown agreed to a contract extension on the eve of the NFL Draft, which will be held in downtown Detroit – less than half hour walk from his home office, Ford Field. St. Brown was selected in the fourth round of the 2021 draft with the 112th pick. He was only the 17th wide receiver taken and was so upset about it that he has memorized the name and ongoing stats of the 16 drafted before him. Well, in one important statistic St. Brown is now ahead of those 16 and every other wideout in the league. His legendary work ethic has produced a four-year extension reportedly worth more than $120 million, including $77 million guaranteed. It makes St. Brown the highest-paid wide receiver in average annual salary at over $30 million, which surpasses Tyreek Hill.

Amon-Ra St. Brown gets record contract extension from Lions

YardBarker - 10 days ago - Amon-Ra St. Brown has been one of the best wide receivers in the NFL over the past three seasons, and the Lions are now paying him accordingly. Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Detroit has signed St. Brown to a four-year, $120 million contract extension. The deal includes $77 million guaranteed. The $77 million guaranteed money is the highest for a wide receiver in NFL history. Cooper Kupp set the previous high mark when the Los Angeles Rams guaranteed him $75 million as part of his three-year, $80 million extension in 2022. St. Brown’s new $30 million salary also matches Miami Dolphins star Tyreek Hill, making the two the highest-paid wide receivers in the NFL in terms of average annual salary. The 24-year-old set career highs across the board in his third NFL season last year with 119 catches, 1,515 yards and 16 touchdowns. The former fourth-round pick out of USC was a first-team All-Pro last season and has made the Pro Bowl the last two years.
