Packers use two void years to help create new deal for TE Marcedes Lewis

The Green Bay Packers added two voidable years within Marcedes Lewis’ new deal to help lower his 2021 cap hit.

According to Rob Demovsky of ESPN, the Packers added voidable years in 2023 and 2024 to help spread out the proration of the signing bonus for Lewis, who will now have a cap hit of just under $2.4 million in 2021.

The two added void years allow the Packers to spread out his $2.1 million signing bonus over four years instead of two, lowering the cap hit in the first two years, but the Packers will have a dead cap hit to pay when the void years eventually kick in.
