I don't believe those details have been released yet

LMAO

There is no one that's wrong more frequently than you.

And he did not receive $25 million per nor $80 million guaranteed nor $110 million overall.

Shut the **** up, Hootie.

Yeah, Wilson just set a new standard for QB's.

:rolleyes:

but you are saying the bonus is spread out over more years because its an extension.


im not sure that true, he's still getting paid 1.5 million base this season by the looks of things

There seems to be confusion about the contract details. I've read that the total value is $87.5 million with $60 million guaranteed, which averages to $21.9 million per.

But I've also read that this four year extension is tacked on to his 2015 season, locking him up until 2019, not 2018.

If that's the case, it's $17.5 million per year.

im pretty sure its the latter.

rappaport has a tweet that breaks it down by year.


its an extension. contract runs through 2019

So then, on average, it's just $17.5 million per year.

Suck it, Hootie.

This is pretty simple stuff...

How many extra years of team control did Seattle get? How much will he get paid during those extra years? How much more money is Wilson getting for the last year of his original contract?

He is under team control for four extra years. During those years, he will be earning something like $88,000,000. That's roughly $22,000,000 per year. You then have to add in the additional money (if any) they are paying him for the year he was already under contract, because that money is directly attributable to the extra four years.

So he has roughly a 5 year 89.5 million dollar contract.

averages less than 18 million a year, right?

No. It's an extension. It's not a four year deal. It's a four year extension.

He's under contract for five years with a total contract value of $87.5 million, which averages $17.5 million per year.

Russell Wilson’s extension: $31M to sign. Base salaries: $700K in ’15, $12.34M in ’16, $12.6M in ’17, $15.5M in ’18, $17M in ’19.

They added 4 years and $88 million to his deal. This math is very simple.

The base salary adds up to $58,140,000, so slightly less than his guarantee.

so the math i just did?
