A.J. Brown Eagles extension.

A.J. Brown is the latest wide receiver to sign a mega-extension

Brown’s AAV surpasses that of the recently signed contract for Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon Ra-St. Brown. St. Brown signed a four-year, $120 million deal with the Lions earlier this week. The Eagles also inked DeVonta Smith to a new deal this offseason, a three-year, $75 million contract.

The recent deals for Brown, St. Brown, and Smith are just the beginning of some massive contracts that wide receivers will be getting between now and the start of the 2024 season.
