Mahomes dramatically raised the bar for quarterback salaries with his $45 million average yearly salary. The previous standard was the $35 million per year in the four-year extension Russell Wilson signed with the Seahawks in 2019. Mahomes got a 28.6% increase over Wilson's deal.
You ignored the "in the same tier" part. The upper tier of QB money was already set this off-season with Hurts, Jackson, and Herbert each one making just a bump more than the one before...
