Okay, so, I was digging into this whole NFL rookie contract thing, right? And I stumbled upon Kayvon Thibodeaux’s deal, which is, you know, kinda interesting. Here’s what I found out, step by step.
First, I checked out some sports news sites, just to get a general idea. I saw that this guy, Thibodeaux, signed a four-year contract with the New York Giants. Pretty standard stuff for a rookie, I guess.
Then, I dove a bit deeper. I found this site called Spotrac, which is like a goldmine for contract details. They had the whole breakdown of Thibodeaux’s contract. Apparently, it’s worth around $31.3 million. That’s a lot of dough, huh?
Next, I started looking at the yearly breakdown. So, in 2022, his base salary was $705,000. Not bad for a first year, right? Then, in 2024, I saw that his base salary is going to be $985,000. But get this, with bonuses and stuff, he’s expected to make over $3.5 million this year.
But here’s where it gets a bit tricky. I was trying to figure out his future earnings, so I checked his 2025 salary. It says he’ll earn a base salary of $1,100,000, plus a roster bonus of almost $4 million. But I noticed that his cap hit and dead cap value are both really high.
Fully Guaranteed
- I also found out that his entire contract is fully guaranteed. That means even if he gets injured or something, he’s still getting paid. Talk about security!
- There is a 5th-year option available.
- 2023-2025 roster bonuses due the 3rd day of training camp.
So yeah, that’s basically what I learned about Kayvon Thibodeaux’s contract. It’s a lot of money, and it’s all guaranteed. It’s interesting to see how these NFL contracts work, even if it’s a bit confusing at times. I just thought I’d share my little research journey with you all. Hope you found it somewhat interesting!
