Safety Nick Cross has reached an agreement on a two-year contract with Washington worth up to $14 million, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
The deal was negotiated by Win Sports Group on behalf of the defensive back. The agreement, which spans the next two seasons, carries a maximum value of $14 million including incentives. This move solidifies a key position in the Washington secondary as the team continues to manage its roster heading into the new campaign.
While the total potential value of the contract has been confirmed, specific details regarding the signing bonus, guaranteed money, and the yearly base salary structure have not yet been made public. The signing represents a significant investment in the defensive backfield by the Washington front office.
Cross is expected to remain a vital contributor to the defense under the terms of this new extension. As the league year progresses, more information regarding the cap implications of the deal is likely to emerge.
