The Cleveland Browns have restructured Olivier Vernon‘s contract, ensuring the defensive end will be with the team this season.
Vernon, who was due to make $15.25 million (non-guaranteed) in 2020, agreed to a restructured deal that will pay him $11 million guaranteed this season, a source told ESPN’s Field Yates. That total comes from a $7 million signing bonus, $3.75 million base salary and a $250,000 workout bonus. Vernon can earn an additional $2 million through incentives, the source said.
