New England Patriots rookie QB Jacoby Brissett signed his four-year rookie contract Thursday, June 16. The deal is worth a total of over $3.4 million and includes a $680,604 signing bonus. He also received workout bonuses of $25,000 for each of 2017, 2018 and 2019. The base salaries of the contract are $450,000 this year, $580,038 in 2017, $735,076 in 2018 and $890,114 in 2019.
Footballguys View: Jimmy Garoppolo gets his first starts if Tom Brady’s suspension holds up, and if he does well, Garoppolo could end up traded. Which means Brissett could be the future of the position. He’s only interesting from a Dynasty standpoint though, as it is unlikely he will see action this year.
