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.

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.
