There’s no new money in Aaron Rodgers’ new deal (adjusted upward to account for 18th game check):
2021
$6.8 million roster bonus (from March)
$14,464,706 signing bonus
$1.1M base salary
Total: $22,364,706
2022
$26,470,588 salary
$500K workout bonus
Total: $26,970,688
Pelissero added Rodgers signing bonus and $6.8 million roster bonus will be paid out over the course of the 2021 regular season, and the Packers will save around $10 million in cap space this year.
The new contract ends a monthslong saga that cast doubt about whether Rodgers would play for Green Bay again.
