Contract Notes
Jason Kelce signed a 3 year contract with the Eagles on March 5, 2019. Kelce had two years remaining under contract but based on the contract structure we are valuing this as an entirely new contract. The total value of the contract is $24.5 million with $19 million guaranteed for injury and $10.5 million fully guaranteed at signing. The full guarantee consists of a $7.57 million signing bonus, $2 million 2020 roster bonus, and Kelce's 2019 salary. The Eagles can exercise a $7.5 million option for the 2021 league year in the early part of the 2020 league year. If the Eagles fail to exercise the option Kelce's salary will escalate to match the option figure and it will be guaranteed. The 2022 through 2024 seasons are void years that are included for the purposes of salary cap proration. The new contract reduced Kelce's 2019 salary cap charge by $4.056 million.
Kelce signed a new contract with the Eagles in March of 2021. The new contract is a effectively a one year, $9 million contract that includes a $4.5 million raise from his prior salary. The contract contains what are effectively four dummy contract years for salary cap purposes which is designed to allow the Eagles to use a June 1 release on Kelce in 2022. The move created $2.84 million in 2021 cap room for Philadelphia.
