Where did you guys hear he took a paycut? Only thing I see is they restructured the money and turned all but $700k this year into a signing bonus so they can spread the cap hit out over a few seasons. I don't see any mention of the money coming to him getting reduced though.
This.
This. I think it's hilarious when everybody on the ESPN comments about how what a team player he is taking, standup guy and all this stuff, which I agree with but not because he turned his salary into bonus. if anything in the long run he will make more money, because he can invest that bonus because he gets it right away. it's not taking a pay cut
either way, he freed up space to help us out this year so we can keep better players on the roster.
