The Detroit Lions agreed to terms with wide receiver DJ Chark on Tuesday. When it was first reported, the deal was described as a one-year, $10 million deal, with all of that money guaranteed. Since it’s a one-year deal and all that money is guaranteed, it was presumed he would count $10 million against the cap.
However, further details have come out about the contract, and Chark’s cap hit will actually be just over $4 million in 2022. Why? Because the deal is technically a three-year contract, but with two automatically voided years.
