How did it benefit the Patriots cap wise? I think they are paying him the same amount but with possible incentives on top of what was already guaranteed.

Didn't touch 2018 or 2019 either

Gronk was initially scheduled to earn $5 million in cash in 2017, but he can now earn as much as $10.75 million if he reaches certain incentives.


I think his guaranteed is the same or around the same just with some cherries on top

It’s a win-win scenario for both parties. For the Patriots, this keeps their star tight end happy and it doesn’t cost them all too much in the grand scheme of things. At $10.75 million, Gronk would become the highest paid tight end in the NFL. Entering this offseason, he was the eighth highest paid tight end in the league.

So they are investing more into him while maintaining the same risk they had before
