Report: Patriots Adjust Lawrence Guy's Contract

Guy is entering his fourth season with the Patriots.

The New England Patriots adjusted defensive tackle Lawrence Guy's contract over the weekend. 

The Patriots increased Guy's 2020 salary by $200,000, while also increasing his per-game roster bonuses by $700,000, per ESPN's Field Yates. New England also removed two play-time incentives from his contract that totaled $900,000. As Yates explained, the path for Guy to obtain the full value of his contract just got a bit easier due to the adjustments. 

The Patriots increased the salary of DT Lawrence Guy by $200k for this season, while also increasing his per-game roster bonuses by $700K, per source. Two of his play-time incentives totaling $900K were removed.

Guy can still make $5M this season; the path is more achievable.

Guy is entering his fourth season with the six-time Super Bowl champions. He is in the final year of his four-year, $15.3 million contract with New England. The 10-year veteran has been a crucial part of the defensive interior for the Patriots, and he will be expected to maintain that role through the 2020 season.
