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.

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