The New York Jets and their star cornerback Sauce Gardner have reportedly agreed on a new four-year deal, which makes Gardner the highest-paid player in his position in the NFL.

ESPN's senior NFL insider, Adam Schefter, reported on Tuesday that the Jets and Gardner have reached an agreement on a four-year deal that ties him to the team for the next six seasons, through to 2030.

The deal is reportedly the same structure and length as wide receiver Garrett Wilson’s deal, announced on Monday.

Gardner’s deal includes $85.6 million (£74.2m) guaranteed.
