The Baltimore Ravens' new deal for receiver Zay Flowers, averaging $35 million annually, is already impacting negotiations for other top NFL pass-catchers. This contract forces Rams receiver Puka Nacua and Cowboys receiver George Pickens to reconsider their own financial situations.
While Pickens could face a franchise tag, Nacua's delayed extension becomes more glaring against Flowers' new-money APY. The deal also sets a benchmark for players like Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson and Bengals receiver Ja'Marr Chase, who will likely demand similar or higher annual averages. freshyourfeel.com
