Questionable Earnings

The numbers for Austin’s contract are steep when compared to such an under-performance despite the Rams current circumstances.

Average salary: $10 and a half million
Guaranteed money: $28 and a half million
Total worth for four years: $42 million
Won’t become a free agent until 2022 with current contract.

Why is money the 1st thing that comes to mind when someone mentions value? If $$ is the only thing that makes you valuable, thats a problem.

It’s obvious Austin isn’t backing down but let’s take a look at how he compare to other number one wide outs in the NFL.

You be the judge if Austin is right in believing he’s worth his money.
