Right but his salary is his base 645k this year…that’s his game check forfeit.

He actually wrote in the contract that the guarantees and signing bonus can’t be severed via the suspension.
The NFL should never have allowed this contract. His annual salary this year is less than a top flight QB makes in a half of football. All to avoid paying game checks via a suspension everyone knew was coming.
