is this a 1(current 5th year contract) + 4 yr extension? So he's locked in for 5?

I view this as a huge mistake.

We simply ignored his concussion history.

I hope I'm wrong and he stays healthy. But, I'm very afraid that he will get another head injury and we will immediately be wondering if he will be able to finish out his contract.

No it isn't.

his concussion history is tied into the loss of value of his previous production that warrants his new contract.

Surprised me as well. Will still have him as the 6th highest paid WR
JSN: $42.15M per year
Chase: $40.25M
London: $35,263,500
Jefferson: $35M
Lamb: $34M
Olave: $33M
Metcalf: $32,999,882
Wilson: $32.5M

Same guarantees as Wilson

He basically got Garrett Wilson's contract from last offseason. The injuries clearly factored into him not getting any bump up.

Talk about overpaying. Good grief.

Gayle needs to sell the team.

Should not have as much guaranteed money.

Should also have a concussion retirement clause built in after year two.

This feels like a I have my money and one concussion away from screwing the Saints over.
