The Jets got their other big extension done too:
Another #Jets deal: Sauce Gardner is now the NFL’s highest-paid CB, agreeing to a four-year, $120.4 million extension, sources tell The Insiders.
One day after Garrett Wilson’s deal, Gardner gets $30.1m per year in a contract done by @ajv and @allantegardner of @vaynersports. pic.twitter.com/fJhSjZeNMw

Gardner getting a record deal is no surprise. It’s a relief he didn’t (unrealistically) expect to get as much per year as Garrett Wilson, because the positional discrepancy between receiver and cornerback essentially made that unworkable.
