Contract Notes
Derek Carr signed a four year, $150 million contract with the Saints on March 6, 2023. $100 million of the contract is guaranteed, with $60 million fully guaranteed at signing. Per PFT, Carr received a $28.5 million signing bonus and his 2023 and 2024 base salaries are fully guaranteed. If on the roster in March of 2024, a $10 million roster bonus due in 2025 will become fully guaranteed. Another $30 million in salary in 2025 will be guaranteed if on the roster that March. Carr has a no trade clause as part of his contract. We are assuming that the Saints included a void year for salary cap purposes but that is not yet confirmed.
