$50k break
Az-Zahir Hakim ended up getting $50,000 above the $665,000 NFL minimum salary by signing with the New Orleans Saints. Still, it was weird how he ended up in New Orleans.
Hakim signed a one-year deal with the Chiefs for the minimum. He was set to practice but the league office voided the contract because of some of the provisions. Because some of the provisions were one of the reasons why he signed in Kansas City, Hakim opted to leave the Chiefs and call the Saints with hopes of getting a contract.
He will make $715,000 as the Saints third wide receiver.
