New contract details emerge for G Aaron Stinnie

Stinnie’s contract includes two roster bonuses, one which has already been paid out.

[autotag]Aaron Stinnie[/autotag] re-signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the beginning of free agency, and now his contract details are officially known.

Stinnie’s deal was originally reported to be up to $2.5 million, but it appears that this isn’t the case. FOX Sports’ Greg Auman reported on Thursday that Stinnie’s deal is a one-year deal, but is set at a $1.15 million base salary and a $250,000 roster bonus that has already been paid on March 19 — there’s also a $100k roster bonus should he be on the team Week 1, which is a highly likely outcome.

That would make Stinnie’s deal worth around $1.5 million when he’s on the roster Week 1, which is around $1 million less than was initially reported. The Bucs should get great value out of that contract for Stinnie, as he’s a veteran guard who has displayed flashes of solid play in his time with Tampa Bay.
