Two-time All-Pro right tackle Jack Conklin and the Cleveland Browns have agreed to restructure his contract for the 2022 season, multiple outlets reported Saturday.
Conklin was slated to make $12 in base salary in 2022, but the money was non-guaranteed. Instead, Conklin will receive $8 million fully guaranteed with $4 million in incentives based on playing time.
The incentives could come into play as Conklin is recovering from a ruptured right patella tendon sustained in a Nov. 28 game against the Baltimore Ravens. He hopes to be ready for the start of the 2022 season.The restructuring saves the Browns $4 million in salary-cap space, but it also assures that they won't cut Conklin after June 1 and owe him nothing.
Conklin played in just seven of 17 games last season due to three injuries. He missed two games with a knee injury and three more due to a dislocated elbow prior to the patella tendon injury. The 27-year-old has started all 79 games he's played during six NFL seasons with the Tennessee Titans and Browns . He agreed to a three-year, $42 million contract with Cleveland on March 16, 2020.
