The three-year deal for cornerback Rasul Douglas with the Green Bay Packers includes a $5.3 million signing bonus, a low cap hit in Year 1, roster bonuses in Year 2 and Year 3, a base value of $21 million and incentives worth up to $4.5 million, according to details released by Rob Demovsky of ESPN.
The deal will pay Douglas $7 million in the first year. His cap number in 2022 will be just $3.34 million, thanks to the prorated signing bonus and a low Year 1 base salary of just over $1 million.
The only guaranteed money is the signing bonus.
