The Eagles finally secured a dynamic wide receiver to pair with DeVonta Smith, acquiring A.J. Brown from the Titans for the 18th and 101st overall picks.
Brown had been looking for a new deal in Tennessee and immediately agreed to a new 4-year, $100 million contract with Philadelphia, that includes $57 million guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $25 million per season.
In 2022, the final year of his rookie deal, Brown will earn a base salary of $3,986,000, while carrying a cap hit of $3,986,000.
With the trade and new deal in place, Brown leapfrogged several big named and more accomplished receivers on the list, landing at No. 4 in the NFL for average per season.
The total value ties Brown with Amari Cooper for 3rd in the NFL as well. Here’s a look at the 10 highest-paid wide receivers in the NFL according to Over The Cap.
