Eric Decker’s legacy with the New York Jets is an interesting diatribe. He came in like a wrecking ball and with a label, as a by-product of Peyton Manning. Decker, after achieving statistical success with the Denver Broncos, was looking for a pay day.
He found one with the Jets after getting the red carpet treatment from the team with all the bells and whistles. It resulted in a five-year deal for $36 million, good guaranteed money for Decker and the Jets got fair value. A win-win scenario.
Decker ended up spending three seasons with the Jets that was filled with highs and lows.
