Buffalo Bills contract details for Nicholas Morrow, Ty Johnson, Casey Toohill, more - Buffalo Rumblings
Nicholas Morrow, LB
Morrow signed a one-year, $1.5 million deal with a $250,000 signing bonus part of $750,000 fully guaranteed. With five years of service, the minimum salary for Morrow would be $1.125 million, so he received a little more than that. If he’s released and signs elsewhere, the Bills will likely only be on the hook for $290,000 in the signing bonus and workout bonus. His cap hit and total cash if he’s on the roster opening day is $1.5 million. He has a reasonable chance of being on someone’s roster this season.
Ty Johnson, RB
The Bills re-signed Johnson as a depth option and are utilizing the veteran salary benefit to lower his cap hit. They’re paying him $1,292,500 but his cap hit will only be $1,152,500 because of the benefit. He received a $167,500 signing bonus and $500,000 of his minimum salary is guaranteed, which indicates that he’s going to be on the roster or practice squad.
Will Clapp, C
Clapp earned a $75,000 signing bonus as part of $287,500 guaranteed in his one-year deal. He has a $1.125 minimum salary, which qualifies him for the veteran salary benefit and lowers his cap hit slightly. He negotiated a $50,000 roster bonus, and I believe it’s a per-game active bonus of $2,941/game. He also has a $42,500 workout bonus, so his cash total is up to $1,292,500 while his cap hit will only be $1,152,500. It’s complex enough when they have an idea that he has a chance of making the roster.
