The New York Giants and Odell Beckham Jr. have agreed to a contract extension in advance of the 2018 season, and it is one that should make the star wide receiver extremely happy.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports that Beckham’s new deal is worth $95 million over five seasons. It also includes $65 million guaranteed, which is the most guaranteed money a wide receiver has ever gotten.
The #Giants and WR Odell Beckham Jr have agreed to terms on a 5-year extension worth a whopping $95M, source said. He gets the highest guarantee ever for a WR at $65M and averages $20M over the first 3 years. Nice job by the #NYG and agent Zeke Sandhu getting this done. Win/win

Beckham’s new deal averages $19 million per season, which is significantly more than the $17 million per year Antonio Brown gets from the Pittsburgh Steelers. Brown was the highest-paid receiver in football prior to Beckham inking his new deal.
Now that we know how much money Beckham will be making over the next several years, it’s no surprise he and his teammates reacted to the news the way they did.
