His cap hit is a little over $7 million this year and a little under $8 million next year. Both very affordable. In 2024 he will drop to a little more than $2 million a season.

Speaking of how bad I am at Madden, they think I should draft a projected undrafted rookie as 1st overall. Mind you, my QB won MVP back-to-back and I'm reigning super bowl champion. Clown show.
