I was just reading about Davon House's new contract in link below.

I'm not really that knowledgeable on contract structure, and this piques my curiosity.
- I thought signing bonus was only for in-demand players as added incentive. Surprised it applies to relatively free FAs to speak.
- And what the heck is a workout bonus? Isn't it part of job description to work out when playing for a team? Does it require a bonus? Does he get it if he just works out and not play games?
- Are we playing hims $300k for every game he's active (whether or not he played) or only where he plays?
Anyone can explain how the contracts usually works? Any links?
