Budda Baker Contract Details Released
The details of Budda Baker's deal have been unveiled for the Arizona Cardinals.
In this story:
Arizona Cardinals safety Budda Baker is sticking around the desert, something that wasn't always a given after the All-Pro wanted a trade if he wasn't made the highest-paid safety in the league (reported by Adam Schefter earlier in the offseason before being refuted by Baker's agent).
First reported by NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, Baker was awarded a $300k signing bonus and up to $2.4 million in possible incentives.
More details were released via Cards Wire's Jess Root:
- The Cardinals gave Baker a $300,000 signing bonus and guaranteed his 2023 salary.
- Baker can earn up to $200,000 in per-game active roster bonuses..
- Baker's 2024 salary of $14.2 million is still non-guaranteed, but he can earn $400,000 in an offseason workout bonus for participating in the voluntary offseason program.
- Baker gains a $500,000 bonus each year for being selected to the Pro Bowl OR first-team All-Pro.
- $1.4 million can be earned in playing time bonuses.
- Baker's cap hit this year will go up as much as $500,000 with the signing bonus and per-game roster bonuses.
