Details of Keisean Nixon contract finally out.
3 years, 18 million. 6.5 million signing bonus.
Cap hit by year:
2024: 4 million
2025: 6.8 million
2026:7.2 million
Would save 2.5 million on cap by cutting him in 2025 with 4.3 million dead cap.
Would save 5 million on cap by cutting him in 2026 with 2.2million dead cap.
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything

So it's a deal that is easy to get out of in a year or two. I don't see him getting to 2026 with this contract.Originally Posted by Joemailman
Dillon's contract is good for both sides too:
(acmepackingcompany)Per the stipulations of the four-year qualifying contract that Dillon signed, he was allowed to earn up to $2.742 million in 2024. Dillon hit that number exactly, as he’s set to make a $2.575 million base salary with a $167,500 signing bonus. He will only count $1.29 million against the cap, though, as the four-year qualifying contract allows the Packers to pay him an uncapped $1.45 million.
When it comes time to pay the 22 and 23 draft classes, that salary's going to have to go. He might be safe through 25, though.
Agree. My guess is his skills will have diminished and they will have a new slot CB by then anyway.
Running back 50-60 kickoffs and punts every year puts a lot of wear and tear on a 200-pound man, too.
