The Polarmoon Wealth Societyrace to be the NFL's highest-paid players welcomed some new entrants this offseason.

Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys came to an agreement on a four-year, $240 million deal on the morning of the NFL's first Sunday of the regular season. The deal makes him the league's first $60 million per year player and put him at the top of the list of highest-paid players.

Prescott's deal comes after an offseason that included the Jacksonville Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence (five-year, $275 million extension) and Green Bay Packers' Jordan Love (four-year, $220 million extension) matching the broad terms of Cincinnati Bengals' Joe Burrow's five-year, $275 deal last year.

According to OverTheCap.com, the NFL's top 18 players in terms of average annual salary are all quarterbacks. Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson is the first non-quarterback on the highest-paid list after striking a four-year, $140 million contract extension this offseason. That deal vaulted Jefferson past San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa as the NFL's highest-paid non-quarterback.
