He signed a three-year contract worth $18 million, but only his signing bonus and his first year were guaranteed. If they choose to release him after the first year the Seahawks would accrue $2,333,334 in dead money, and $1,166,667 if they released him after the second year.

In 2015 the four starting members of the Legion of Boom will account for about 21% ($29,916,666) of the salary cap.
