Running back A.J. Dillon has signed his rookie contract with the Green Bay Packers.
Dillon, the team’s second-round pick, announced the signing on social media Wednesday.
Dillon becomes the fifth Packers draft pick to sign a rookie deal, joining Jonathan Garvin, Vernon Scott, Simon Stepaniak and Jon Runyan. The Packers still need to sign Jordan Love, Josiah Deguara, Kamal Martin and Jake Hanson.
Dillon’s deal will be four years. Over the Cap estimates the contract for the 62nd overall pick to be worth almost $5.3 million, with a signing bonus of a little over $1.4 million and a cap hit in 2020 of a little over $960,000.
The four-year contract will keep Dillon in Green Bay through the 2023 season.
