Guarantee Could Be $110 Million For Aaron Rodgers
We all know Aaron Rodgers is going to get paid a ton of money at some point. Probably soon.
The market has been set after the signings of Kirk Cousins (three years, $84 million, all guaranteed) and Matt Ryan (five years, $150 million, $94.5 million guaranteed).
The Rodgers’ situation comes down guaranteed money. The Packers will make him the highest-paid player in the game, but what will they guarantee in his contract? The team hasn’t traditionally been in the habit of making guarantees. They usually build in additional money for workout bonuses and games-played bonuses.
Rodgers has both of those in his current contract and he lost some money by missing games last year.
