A really interesting story in The Ringer by Danny Kelly poses an interesting question — who is the most underpaid veteran on each NFL team?
The definition is important. As Kelly explains, players who are on rookie contracts — which cannot be negotiated — aren’t taken into consideration (though now at all the key players from the seminal 2010-12 drafts have gotten second contracts, I’m not sure there’s anyone you would consider).
Kelly’s choice for the Seahawks? Defensive end Cliff Avril.
As Kelly notes, Avril’s average annual salary on a contract signed in 2014 is $7.
