The Arizona Cardinals have signed seven of their nine draft picks and among the first to sign their rookie contracts was quarterback Clayton Tune, the Cardinals’ first of two fifth-round selections.
Tune, drafted No. 139 overall by the Cardinals, gets a four-year contract worth a total of more than $4.19 million, according to Over the Cap.
He receives a signing bonus of $350,624.
He will make the league’s minimum salary each of the four years of his deal.
- 2023: $750,000
- 2024: $915,000
- 2025: $1.03 million
- 2026: $1.15 million
Salary cap implications
There is nothing complicated about his contract in terms of his cap hit each year. It will be the sum of his yearly salary plus the prorated number for his signing bonus, which will spread out over all four years.
These are his cap hits each year:
- 2023: $838,000
- 2024: $1 million
- 2025: $1.12 million
- 2026: $1.23 million
