Chargers make massive commitment to Joey Bosa during strange times

Joey Bosa's holdout from 2016 apparently resonated into 2020.

@CloakNNNdagger what's your opinion on this, re his history of lisfranc injury?

Bosa's Lisfranc was a grade I stable lesion without displacement. Therefore, conservative treatment was indicated.........., along with immobilization and initial avoidance of weight-bearing...............not like Schaub's Lisfranc. Even so, he had a rough 1 year recovery. He has lost some explosiveness. But despite this, he was able to manage 12 sacks last year. I think he will continue to do relatively well, but I'm not sure that I would feel comfortable trusting him to earn his multi-million dollar offering.

14.6% of next years cap .... wow.

Hard to believe owners are willing to make such financial commitments right now , not knowing when or if fans will be back in the stands and that being such a large part of revenue.

Hell , society may find something else to do with their time and money ....
 
The full Joey Bosa contract breakdown
August 1, 2020, 10:22 AM EDT

At first blush, the new contract for Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa looked great. On closer inspection, it’s spectacular.
Here are the full details of the deal Bosa signed this week, per a source with knowledge of the numbers.

1. Signing bonus: $35 million.
2. Fully-guaranteed roster bonus, due August 15: $7 million.
3. 2020 base salary: $1 million, fully guaranteed at signing.
4. 2021 base salary: $13.75 million, fully guaranteed at signing.
5. 2022 base salary: $21.25 million, fully guaranteed at signing.
6. 2023 base salary: $24 million, guaranteed for injury at signing, fully guaranteed as of the third day of the 2022 league year.
7. 2024 roster bonus: $7 million, due on the third day of the league year.
8. 2024 base salary: $15 million.
9. 2025 roster bonus: $8.36 million, due on the third day of the league year.
10. 2025 base salary: $17 million.

The $35 million signing bonus is second only to Aaron Donald among all defensive players; however, the $7 million roster bonus due in two weeks pushes the up-front take to $42 million for Bosa.

More significantly, Bosa becomes the first defensive player to get three years of compensation fully guaranteed at signing. That’s why the $78 million in full guarantees at signing lands at No. 4 all time, behind only Matt Ryan, Aaron Rodgers, and Kirk Cousins.
Bosa’s fourth year likely will be guaranteed, given that the $24 million injury-only base salary for 2023 vests in 2022. To avoid owing him the extra $24 million, the Chargers will have to pay him $78 million for two seasons of football.

While it’s not a half-billion-dollar deal like the one signed by one of the quarterbacks Bosa will keep chasing, the early cash flow for Bosa blows away the Patrick Mahomes deal. For example, Mahomes received a $10 million signing bonus, $25 million less than Bosa. Also, Mahomes will receive $10.825 million in 2020; Bosa gets $43 million.

Through two years, Mahomes gets $33.6 million. Bosa, in contrast, gets $56.75 million. Through three years, Mahomes will make $63 million. Bosa will make $78 million.

Mahomes doesn’t catch Bosa in cash flow until 2023, when Mahomes will end up with $1 million more than Bosa. At that point, Bosa will be under contract for only two more years. Mahomes will be under contract for eight more years.
