Minnesota Vikings star receiver Justin Jefferson must have been grinning from ear to ear after learning of Stefon Diggs’ massive contract extension with the Buffalo Bills. It just reinforced what he already knew: He’s getting paid when his contract is up.
On Wednesday morning, it was reported that Diggs had signed a four-year, $104 million extension with $70 million guaranteed with the Bills. That essentially locks the 28-year-old former Viking up as quarterback Josh Allen’s primary receiving target for the foreseeable future.
But even that contract paled in comparison to the record-breaking Tyreek Hill deal with the Miami Dolphins back in March. “The Cheetah” became the first non-quarterback to make $30 million annually after receiving a four-year, $120 million extension with $72.2 million guaranteed.
