The Green Bay Packers aren’t paying much to see if veteran Sammy Watkins can help stabilize the team’s wide receiver position in 2022.
According to Over the Cap, Watkins’ one-year deal with the Packers includes only $350,000 guaranteed – all in the form of a signing bonus – and will count just under $1.8 million on the team’s salary cap.
Because of the Top 51 rule during the offseason, Watkins’ immediate effect on the Packers’ salary cap amounts to under $1 million.
His base salary is $1,120,000. He can earn a $50,000 workout bonus for participation during the offseason workout program and $330,000 total in per-game roster bonuses.
