Christian Gonzalez Extension
The New England Patriots have signed All-Pro cornerback Christian Gonzalez to a record-breaking four-year, $135 million extension, with $102 million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid cornerback in NFL history. His average annual salary of $33.75 million surpasses that of fellow 2023 draftee Devon Witherspoon. As the season approaches, the Pittsburgh Steelers face a contract impasse with Joey Porter Jr., who may consider sitting out if not extended. Following Gonzalez’s deal, six cornerbacks now earn over $30 million annually.
