The Eagles made a slightly surprising move last week in bringing back former first-round pick Derek Barnett. After an option year that cost the team $9M ended in 2.5 sacks and a bucket of disappointment, many were keen to see what kind of money the Eagles would pay him. Now we know.
On the surface, $13M guaranteed is a lot of money, but Howie has done a Howie in somehow adding voidable years to a two-year contract. His cap hit across both seasons won’t actually be much at all.
