Beason takes pay cut in restructured deal

Panthers linebacker Jon Beason agreed to a significant pay cut this season, although Beason can recoup a lot of the money by staying healthy and remaining on the roster.

Under the terms of his restructured contract, Beason's base salary drops from $5.25 million to $1 million guaranteed, a league source with knowledge of the contract told the Observer on Friday.

Beason earns a $500,000 roster bonus Saturday, and can collect an additional $1.75 million in roster bonuses throughout the season. The contract also includes a $500,000 bonus if Beason makes the Pro Bowl a fourth time.

The restructuring drops Beason's cap figure from $9.5 million to $5.75 million, counting Saturday's roster bonus.

The rest of Beason's base salaries remained unchanged through the 2016 season, creating the potential for another restructuring next year when his cap figure is $10.75 million.

I'm glad Beason decided to do this it shows he's a team player and also that he sees how great the LB core can be with all of them on the field together.

if Keuchly is Clark Kent then Jon Beason is Bruce Wayne and Batman. Shows character on his part.

It rolls over. And considering we have Cam and Hardy's deals to figure out that could be important.

Yea we will need that money for them and signing role players next season for ol secondary and wr

Btw who is the women in your sig?

Spartanburg should rename their famous restaurant the Jon Beacon.  Blows your ass up.

 

lol Jon Beading....take your time starting a thread, although I know how cool it is to break the news first.

Gotta love good character players. Beason is still a leader on our defense and to prove that he is unselfish makes a better Panther...

[Mr. Scot]

Wow, one of the rare "restructures" that is a straight up pay cut. Gettlemen must have mafia connections.

 

It's definitely a surprise, given that Beason had no real reason to agree to such a thing.

I know something she could Maximus. . .

[Fan01]

Wow.  I'm shocked.  I've been yelling for months that it was impossible to restructure Beason's contract because he had no incentive and the team had no leverage.  Big props to Mr. Beason.  I was wrong.  

 

I wonder if any player in the NFL has taken a paycut just out of the goodness of his heart?

Mod could probably edit that for ya.

 

(though they might not if they find it funny) :lol:
