New Contract
|
The 28-year-old is entering a contract year in 2026, set to earn $22.4, with a team-high $28M cap hit attached to it. Payne’s production has flat-lined since a massive 2022 campaign, but his experience and reliability should draw interest. There’s $11.2M of dead cap associated with the contract this offseason, and a $5M March 15th roster bonus becomes an early deadline for this type of move. |
