Well, let me tell ya ’bout this Trey McBride fella and his money situation. You know, these young fellers playin’ that football, they make a whole lotta dough, more than us old folks ever seen in our lives. This Trey kid, he signed somethin’ called a “contract” with them Arizona Cardinals.
Now, I ain’t no fancy lawyer or nothin’, but from what I hear, this contract is a big deal. It’s for four years, and they promised him a heap of money, somethin’ like six million dollars! Can you believe that? Six million dollars! That’s enough to buy a whole lotta cows and chickens, let me tell ya.
They say he got some of that money right off the bat, a “signing bonus” they call it. Over one and a half million dollars just for puttin’ his name on that paper. That’s more money than some folks see in a lifetime of workin’ their fingers to the bone. He got that money guaranteed, too, which means they gotta pay him that even if he ain’t playin’ so good, I reckon.
- This contract thingy, it lasts for four years, all the way through the 2025 season.
- Every year, he gets a “salary,” that’s like his regular pay. It’s over a million dollars a year!
- And they got this other thing called a “cap hit.” Sounds complicated, but it’s somethin’ about how much money they count against the team’s total money allowance. That’s around $1.7 million for this Trey fella.
Now, this contract, it ain’t just a straight payment every year. They got it all figured out, with different amounts each year. I heard tell that in 2024, his salary is around $1.27 million. And this “cap hit” they talk about, that’s like $1.7 million or so for this year. There’s even somethin’ called “dead cap” money, which is money they still gotta pay even if they let him go. That’s like $880 this year, which ain’t nothin’ compared to the rest of that money.
They say his average pay each year is somethin’ like $1.5 million. That’s a whole lotta money for throwin’ around a ball and runnin’ around on a field. I guess that’s just how it is with these football players. They get paid big bucks for entertainin’ folks.
This fella, Trey McBride, I hear he’s a good player. He’s a tight end, whatever that means. They throw him the ball and he catches it, I guess. And for doin’ that, he gets paid more money than most of us can even dream of. He’s got an agent, too, someone who helps him with all this contract stuff. These agents, they take a cut of the money, but I guess it’s worth it to have someone who knows all the ins and outs of these deals.
Now, some other fella, Trey Lance, he signed an even bigger contract with some other team. His contract is worth over $34 million! Can you imagine that much money? He got a huge signing bonus, too, over $22 million. These football players, they are livin’ the high life, that’s for sure. They work hard, though, I reckon. They gotta train and practice all the time, and they risk gettin’ hurt every time they step on that field. So maybe they deserve all that money, I don’t know.
Anyway, that’s the lowdown on Trey McBride’s contract, as far as I can understand it. He’s got himself a good deal, that’s for sure. He’ll be set for life if he’s smart with his money. Hopefully, he’ll invest it wisely and not just blow it all on fancy cars and whatnot. He needs to remember where he came from, even if he’s makin’ big money now.
So, that’s it. That’s all I know about this Trey McBride and his big ol’ contract. It’s a whole lot of money, that’s for sure. And it just goes to show ya, these football players, they make a good livin’ if they’re good at what they do. Makes you wonder if them cows and chickens was the right career choice after all.
