It was reported as an agreement of $ 69 million over three years with guaranteed $ 26 million. It’s not.
Stefon Digg’s new contract is short Reported details By Albert Breer de Si.com.
Here they are:
1. Signage bonuses: $ 12 million.
2. 2025 Training bonuses: $ 200,000.
3. 2025 Basic salary: $ 2.9 million, fully guaranteed.
4. 2025 Bonus Permis PER-GRUE: $ 3.4 million in total.
5. 2026 Training bonuses: $ 200,000.
6. 2026 Basic salary: $ 20.6 million, of which $ 1.7 million is fully guaranteed and of which $ 6 million is guaranteed for signing injury and became fully guaranteed in March 2026.
7. 2026 Bonus Permage Perce: $ 1.7 million in total.
8. 2027 List bonus: $ 200,000.
9. 2027 Basic salary: $ 20.6 million.
10. 2027 List bonus: $ 1.7 million in total.
The contract has $ 4 million in 2025 incentives, with $ 500,000 unlocked at 70 catches, 80 catches, 90 catches, 100 catches, 1,000 meters, 1,100 yards, 1,200 yards and 1,300 yards.
There is also an annual incitement of $ 500,000 in Pro Bowl.
The basic value of the agreement is $ 63.5 million, not $ 69 million. To reach $ 69 million, Diggs must do the pro Bowl each year and take 100 passes for 1,300 yards in 2025.
The signing warranty is $ 16.6 million. The total warranty is $ 22.6 million, not $ 26 million.
Apparently, the initial reports included the $ 3.4 million as a list bonus per match in the warranty. Even if they are, they must always be won. And Diggs – which suffered an ACL torn last season – will lose $ 200,000 for each match its failures.
It is essentially a one -year contract of $ 18.5 million which includes very high list per game bonuses. This can be $ 23 million, if it strikes all the incentives for 2025.
Patriots can escape the agreement next March, with only $ 1.7 million (subject to compensation) due for 2026.
Obviously, an effort was made to make the Diggs agreement better than it is. This is not worth $ 23 million a year in three. It does not pay 26 million dollars guaranteed. He has a year of security, with a team option to find out if he will continue for 2026 and then for 2027.
