The Pittsburgh Steelers signed veteran ILB Tyler Matakevich to a one-year contract a few days ago and on Friday we learned the details of that deal.
According to Over the Cap and the NFLPA public salary cap page, Matakevich’s deal is for the league minimum for his credited NFL seasons. His base salary is $1.21 million and there was no signing bonus given to him.
This contract will qualify as a veteran benefit contract meaning Matakevich will have a salary cap charge of $985,000, which is the minimum base salary for a player with just two credited NFL seasons.
