He was getting fined like crazy for holding out. Was gonna make 18 mil so I’d imagine he got like 7-9 mil more this year. Kelce is the one that is criminally underpaid
I’ve understood it to be guaranteed money for all the contracts. So each year a certain amount is in escrow. Now, the teams have their own attorneys so can it be in a team owned account where they get the interest on the account? L
So each team has roughly 200 mil in salary cap each year right? How much of that is guaranteed? So every year they have to deposit a certain amount in escrow based on guarantees on the roster. It’s not like just the qbs get the huge guaranteed cash. Every player has a percentage
the raiders thing was because they were building a stadium and ran into some construction overages iirc. So it was like one year where cash was a little light and middle of Covid I think or something.
I remember a story of haslam buying the browns and the league asked him if he wanted any investors cause there is a long list of people who want to buy percentages of teams but not the whole thing. He was like no thanks my wire is on the way im paying cash.
