The Detroit Lions used one of their favorite methods to maximize current-year cap space with their newest big-ticket signing.
The Lions included two voidable years at the end of new cornerback Cam Sutton's contract, according to details of the deal filed with the NFL Players Association and first published by A to Z Sports.
Sutton's three-year, $33 million deal includes a $10.9 million signing bonus and low first-year base salary of $1.1 million.
With two extra voidable years to spread the signing bonus proration, Sutton will carry a cap hit of just $3.28 million in 2023.
