“Mystery QB or Record-Breaking Edge Rusher: Who Holds the Crown as NFL’s Highest-Paid Player?”
7. Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles (5 years, $255M)
Signing Year: 2023; AAV: $51,000,000; Signing Age: 24
Hurts took the Eagles to the Super Bowl and cashed in during the following offseason. His contract has the largest AAV ever, and he edged out the next player on the list for the biggest contract by a player not drafted in the first round.
8. Russell Wilson, Denver Broncos (5 years, $242.588M)
Signing Year: 2022; AAV: $48,517,647; Signing Age: 33
The Broncos had been searching for a quarterback since Peyton Manning retired and finally found their man in the Seattle Seahawks legend. After spending a lot of capital to acquire him, it was only a matter of time before the team paid him his money, and he agreed to a new deal a week before the 2022-23 season began. He spent only two seasons with the Broncos.
