Andrew Berry defended giving Deshaun Watson such a low base salary in 2022, a detail that could save Watson money if he’s suspended.
Browns QB Deshaun Watson press conferenceCLEVELAND, Ohio – The Browns are giving new quarterback Deshaun Watson the most guaranteed money in the history of the NFL. His five-year deal totals $230 million dollars.While Watson will count $10 million toward this year’s salary cap, that’s mostly due to an $8.9 million signing bonus. His base salary is only $1,035,000.
It certainly has helped the Browns retain cap space. They also dumped contracts for Jarvis Landry, JC Tretter, Case Keenum and Austin Hooper, and restructured Amari Cooper’s deal. Thanks to all that, they currently rank third in available cap space for this year , according to data from Over The Cap.
“That structure is very similar to a number of the large contracts that we already have on the books,” Berry said.Hooper signed a four-year, $42 million deal in 2020, and that included a base salary of $1.5 million in the first year. Hooper’s base salary rose each year, to $4.5 million in 2021 to $9.5 million in 2022.
