That stipulation, regardless of which team’s record was used to calculate, means that the entire bonus structure will be considered NLTBE, therefore not counting against the cap. Dalton’s just $900,000 above that, has 70 career wins and a winning record, and thanks to a creative structure of the contract, is only going to make more than that if Prescott misses a significant portion of the 2020 season.OK, but Dalton did play over 50% of the Bengals’ snaps in 2019.Imagine paying $900,000 for a starting-quality backup upgrade in a season a team hopes to compete for a Super Bowl, and then getting a third-round comp pick later on down the line because of it.Despite Dallas having a young starter who has yet to miss a game in his four years, Dalton chose to come to Dallas and the $7 million possibility seemed — from the outside at least — to be enticing for someone who was on the Bengals’ books to make $17 million in 2020. The guaranteed money was just $3 million, but surely the incentive portion of the agreement would have the 2020 cap impact higher than that, and there’d be a real possibility Dalton could see more than just the guaranteed portion.That’s just ingenuous deal making by the Cowboys.That part was correct, but it appears the Cowboys were ridiculously crafty in how they defined playing.Dalton started 13 games for the Bengals in 2019. The Cincinnati Bengals officially released Dalton , their long-time starter, last week. This is an enormous steal by the front office.The Cowboys have waived QB Cooper Rush and officially signed Andy Dalton.Please give an overall site rating:We knew the general parameters of the Dalton contract, but now we have further details.Like us on Facebook to see similar stories NFL contracts have two types of incentives, likely to be earned (LTBE) and not likely to be earned (NLTBE).

The 2-14 Bengals and the 8-8 Cowboys both missed the playoffs. The Cowboys signed former Bengals starter Andy Dalton this offseason to a one-year, $7 million contract as a veteran insurance policy. Just a couple of days after the Bengals released QB Andy Dalton, the Cowboys are bringing him back home.Per Adam Schefter of ESPN.com, Dallas is signing the Texas native to a one-year, $3MM deal that can reach $7MM with incentives (Twitter link).. One immediate response to the signing is that it could be a leverage play for the Cowboys in their continuing negotiations with Dak Prescott. Andy Dalton is going to be playing for one of the NFL’s most-famous franchises. Former Dallas Cowboys star Dez Bryant called the team "out of line" for signing free agent quarterback Andy Dalton before they can work out a contract extension for Dak Prescott. He will be backing up Dak Prescott with the Dallas Cowboys in 2020. A $15 million average would be worth that for Dallas in the comp equation. We all wondered how he could acquire that extra $4M.The incentives that would boost Dalton to $7M are tied to playing time which means that if things move forward as they normally have, he will only make $3M with the Cowboys. Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday the Dallas Cowboys are signing the long-time Cincinnati Bengals QB, who was released this week, to a one-year, $7 million contract.

NLTBE is the exact opposite, stats the player didn’t achieve the prior season.It was expected by many (read, me- the author of this piece) that a significant portion of Dalton’s $4 million worth of incentives would be based on whether or not he actually plays.Not only that, Dalton will have to play the equivalent of 8 regular season games AND appear in the majority of playoff snaps in order to make a cent above the $3 million.There of course is the hopefully remote possibility the Cowboys and Prescott are unable to work out a long-term deal and there is a chance to impress the Dallas staff that Dalton should be the successor in that worst-case scenario. Most likely though, Dalton will be an injury-slash-mopup duty guy who hopes to impress enough to get the opportunity to sign as a starter elsewhere in 2021.When the deal was originally announced, quarterback Andy Dalton was reported to be able to make up to $7 million in his one-year deal with the Dallas Cowboys.
