Is that something like that allowed or no because of how the salary cap works?
You’d just build a huge roster or option bonus into yr 3.
So it would be presented as 5yrs $255m with $90m guaranteed and then an option/roster bonus or with additional salary guaranteed before the start of the league yr in yr3
My guess is that it would be too tricksy to actually work the conditions into the contract but the Fins would build in the timing of the decision on yrs 3-5 with the financial parameters
I doubt Tua’s agent would agree to only $90m g but he would know better than we do what Tua’s market would be
