The details surrounding the contract for new Cincinnati Bengals right tackle Trent Brown have started to emerge.
Initially reported as a one-year deal, Brown gets $2 million guaranteed with minor workout bonuses and comes to a $4.4 million cap hit next season, according to OverTheCap.
That’s a prove-it deal for a veteran who has had attendance issues over the last few seasons. Overall, it knocks the Bengals out of the top 10 in terms of money invested in the offensive line (though this could rebound in a hurry with an early draft pick).
For context’s sake, former right tackle Jonah Williams is a $6.6 million cap hit for the Arizona Cardinals next season.
The contract leaves the Bengals with about $23.6 million in free cap space.
