Rodgers previous contract was through 2014 so the extension of five years means he is under contract for the next 7 seasons. How the math works depends upon if you are just looking at the 5 years of the extension or the total 7 years. The 5-year extension is worth $110M, that’s $22M/year. IMO it makes more sense to look at the entire 7 years and that number is $130.75, which is $18.68M/year.   As far as it is “never more than $21 million in a year” keep in mind Rodgers will receive $40,000,000 this year. The cap hit is never more than... because the signing bonus of $35M is spread over the term of the contract. The guaranteed money - a very important aspect of these huge deals - is $54M. </blockquote>
