The Arizona Cardinals have re-signed nine free agents so far this offseason, and Maxx Williams is one of them. It’s a steal that he signed a one-year contract to play for the Cardinals for a fourth season.
Because of the veteran wage benefit, his cap hit will be lower than what he is actually paid.
He’ll earn $1.12 million each year, which is the minimum for his league. There are no assurances for him. There is no signing bonus, but he has the potential to make over $150,000.
He’ll get a roster bonus of $15,000 if he makes the final 53-man roster. An additional $52,500 incentive awaits him if he plays any significant role in Week 1. In addition, he will receive $5,000 in roster bonuses for every game in which he appears.
The maximum payout for him under the terms of his contract is over $1.27 million. However, he will only be responsible for a $920,000 maximum charge.
The Cardinals have gotten an incredible deal.
Before Williams tore his ACL in Week 5 of the 2021 season, he was having a banner year. The Cardinals’ offense will benefit greatly from his comeback in 2022, despite the fact that he will be the team’s No. 2 tight end behind Zach Ertz.
How Much Does Maxx Williams Make?
