Minnesota Vikings' wide receiver Justin Jefferson signed a four-year $140 million contract extension, setting a new standard for wide receiver salaries in the NFL and potentially influencing the pending extension negotiations of San Francisco 49ers' wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk. While Aiyuk has had impressive performances, Jefferson's achievements and record-breaking deal may guide discussions on Aiyuk's compensation, which is expected to be around $27-28 million per year. The 49ers have options like using the franchise tag, but securing a long-term extension remains a priority amidst the evolving wide receiver market.
