Yahoo Sports NFL on Garrett Wilson

Wilson's $130M deal creates $6.75M dead cap but saves $16.5M in 2027.

Wilson signed a four-year, $130 million contract extension in July 2025. Trading him would cost the Jets $6.75 million in dead cap through 2029 and $4 million in 2030, but would save $16.5 million in 2027 and over $29 million in the next two years. The source argues that despite dead cap, the Jets could justify a trade given their 2-5 record and need to rebuild around a 2027 quarterback prospect.
