    That would be a bad look for the Raiders who gave Geno a contract that can reach 85 million :eek:

    Wow!!!!
    I didn't know that. Then they will probably stick with him until they just can't.

    $24 million Base Salary this year. Had a roster bonus of $14 million this year that has already been paid in full. There is no Signing Bonus money spread for multiple years, or any Void years at the end in his contract.

    If they cut him at the end of the year, they have a dead cap hit only of $18 million. Carries a 2026 cap hit of $26 million if they keep him on the team for 2026. The following year in 2027 he carries $0 in dead cap money if released.

    I am sure they would love to draft a QB in the first in next years draft and then pay Gino $26 million to be his mentor for his 1st year.

    These are not Kirk Cousins type numbers. Eating $18 million or paying your backup QB $26 million would not be the end of the world for an NFL team with a rookie QB.

    I didn't like that contract when it happened Geno might get you 8-9 wins, but he's not worth 40 million a year. Seattle was smart to move on from him.
