Trae Waynes made some good money with the Minnesota Vikings but has yet to see a penny of his new contract with the Bengals due to a catch-22 situation.
After spending five seasons with the Minnesota Vikings, Trae Waynes was allowed to hit free agency by the purple and gold. He landed with the Cincinnati Bengals on a three-year deal worth $42 million.
It is great to see Waynes get a nice payday after being a solid defensive back during his time in Minnesota, but the question of when he will actually become a member of the Bengals has to be asked since he has yet to receive a single penny of his $5 million signing bonus due to complications from COVID-19 according to Albert Breer at Sports Illustrated.
