Explaining the NFL veteran salary benefit with Bills P Matt Haack contract details

When the Buffalo Bills re-signed punter Matt Haack, they did it in the cheapest way possible. That means that Haack really wanted to be in Buffalo and also that the Bills were able to convince him to take the lowest possible contract.

Haack will make $1.125 million in base salary if he’s on the Buffalo Bills’ roster for the 2024 NFL season. That’s the minimum for a player with six years of service in the NFL. His cap hit won’t be that same number, though. Instead, he will only count $955,000 against the cap — the same number as a second-year player in the NFL.
