Amon-Ra St. Brown's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

The Detroit Lions agreed to a four-year contract extension with wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown on Wednesday that is worth $120 million with $77 million guaranteed. The deal makes St. Brown the highest-paid receiver in the league and ties him with Miami's Tyreek Hill in average annual value ($30 million). The 24-year-old former fourth-round pick in 2021 out of USC has been an excellent value for Detroit. He's made the Pro Bowl in each of the last two seasons and put up career-highs in catches (119), targets (164), receiving yards (1,515) and touchdowns (10) in 16 regular-season games in his third year in the NFL in 2024. With Quarterback Jared Goff still peppering St. Brown with targets in 2024, he'll continue to serve as a high-end WR1 for fantasy managers.

The Detroit Lions and star receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown have been discussing a contract extension that would likely make him one of the highest-paid wide receivers in the league. St. Brown's agent and Detroit brass met last month at the NFL scouting combine to begin negotiations as it appears that both sides are motivated to get something worked out. St. Brown is heading into the final year of his rookie deal and will play at an absolute bargain price of $3.366 million in 2024. The team is making it a priority to get St. Brown and quarterback Jared Goff extended this offseason after they came just one win short of making it to the Super Bowl.

The Detroit Lions want to sign wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown to a long-term contract extension this offseason and are scheduled to meet with his representatives at the NFL scouting combine this week in Indianapolis. No deal is imminent, but the Lions have made it clear they want to invest in St. Brown and the rest of their roster this offseason. Detroit is also prioritizing getting a new deal done with quarterback Jared Goff. St. Brown, entering his fourth NFL season, is in line for a multi-year extension that will make him one of the highest-paid receivers in the league. He tied for second in the NFL with 119 catches in 2023 and finished third with 1,515 receiving yards t earn first-team All-Pro honors. St. Brown will be a top-five fantasy wideout in 2024 fantasy drafts without a doubt.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown caught seven of his 11 targets for 87 yards in the NFC Championship Game loss to the San Francisco 49ers. The 1,500-yard receiver during the regular season caught five passes for 73 yards in the first half, but he was limited in the second half as the Detroit offense sputtered. St. Brown was named an All-Pro for the first time in his career this season, and he should remain a high-end WR1 in fantasy football for years to come. Although Detroit is likely to lose offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, St. Brown's connection with Jared Goff rivals any WR-QB duo in the league.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has been a consistent producer all year, posting at least 95 receiving yards or scoring a touchdown in 17 of his 18 games. With a trip to Super Bowl LVIII on the line, the third-year pro draws a neutral matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. The Niners surrendered the 14th-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers during the regular season and gave up 100-yard receiving games to six wideouts. St. Brown is a fixture for double-digit targets, and with Josh Reynolds (ribs), Kalif Raymond (knee), and Sam LaPorta (knee) all banged up, he should continue to be fed on Sunday. He is the most expensive wide receiver for DraftKings contests this weekend at $7.900, but he's likely worth paying up for.
