Giants agree to terms with WR John Ross: Contract details
The New York Giants and free agent veteran wide receiver John Ross came to contract agreement on Tuesday. Here are the details:
Ross’ deal is for one year at a value of $2.250 million. The contract includes a $500,000 signing bonus with $1 million guaranteed and an average annual salary of $2,250,000.
Ross breaks downs as a base salary of $1,250,000, a signing bonus of $500,000 and a roster bonus of $93,750. He carries a 2021 cap hit of $1,843,750 and a dead cap value of $1,000,000.
Ross, the ninth overall selection in the 2017 NFL draft, has been largely a disappointment in his four years as a pro — all with the Cincinnati Bengals.
The good news is that this is a relatively low-risk, high-reward deal for the Giants and a prove-it scenario for Ross. If he can stay healthy, there is a ton of potential that can be tapped.
