Arizona Cardinals DL L.J. Collier contract details, cap hit

The official details of numerous NFL player contracts have been slow to be filed thanks to the massive number of deals negotiated and then signed or waiting to be signed in the past week, but we can add Arizona Cardinals defensive lineman L.J. Collier to the list.

Collier’s deal has a base value of $3 million, not $4 million as was originally reported because it includes $1 million in playing time and sack incentives.

There is $1.5 million guaranteed, which includes a $750,000 signing bonus plus $750,000 of his $1.945 million base salary. Also in the deal is a $50,000 workout bonus and $15,000 per-game roster bonuses for a maximum total of $255,000.

The salary cap charge is $3 million.

For the five signed players with published contract details (Collier, Evan Brown, Akeem Davis-Gaither, safety Joey Blount and long snapper Aaron Brewer) plus the one-year restricted free agent tender for Greg Dortch, the total cap hit this year is $18.758 million.

We continue to wait for official figures are additions Jacoby Brissett, Jake Curhan, Josh Sweat, Dalvin Tomlinson and Mykal Walker along with re-signed players Kelvin Beachum, Baron Browning and Zay Jones.
