Here are Riley Dixon’s contract details with the Broncos

It’s official: Riley Dixon is a Denver Bronco (again).

Dixon has returned to the city where his NFL career began, signing a two-year deal with Denver earlier this week. Thanks to various reports, the details of that contract are now known.

Dixon, 29, received a $600,000 signing bonus that will be prorated as $300,00 salary cap hits over the next two years. He will have a $1,165,000 base salary this season with $400,000 guaranteed. That gives him a total of $1 million guaranteed (signing bonus and guaranteed salary) in 2023.

Dixon will have a total 2023 salary cap hit of $1.465 million.

After that, the Broncos could get out of Dixon’s contract in 2024 with a $300,000 “dead money” cap hit and not owe the remaining $1.735 million. If the team does pick up the final year of Dixon’s contract, the punter will have a $1,735,000 base salary in 2024.

Dixon’s total 2024 salary cap hit is set to be $2.035 million.

Dixon ranked 11th among punters with an average of 48.4 yards per boot last season. He had a long of 67 yards and none of his punts were returned for touchdowns.
