The Cincinnati Bengals have made Ja'Marr Chase the NFL's highest-paid wideout by agreeing to the long-awaited contract extension.
According to Fox Sports' Jordan Schultz, Chase and the Bengals agreed to a four-year contract extension worth $161 million.

The pricepoint dramatically jumped as a result, with the Bengals publicly committing to make Chase the highest-paid non-quarterback in a league, a number that went up over $40 million per year this month thanks to Myles Garrett in Cleveland.
