His cap hit goes from $310k to $285k but his actual take home pay goes up because he gets a big signing bonus which gets taxed way less. Win-Win! Tracker, rebusrankin, Piggy 1 and 2 others 5

Tracker Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 Kenny Lawler restructures contract with Winnipeg Blue Bombers By John Hodge - January 16, 2024 Photo: Reuben Polansky/3DownNation. All rights reserved. Winnipeg Blue Bombers’ receiver Kenny Lawler has restructured his contract for the 2024 season, per league sources. The six-foot-two, 199-pound target received a $150,000 signing bonus to ink his new deal, which includes $115,000 in base salary, a $13,800 housing bonus, and a $7,200 travel bonus. In total, Lawler will earn $285,000 in hard money this year. The 29-year-old was originally slated to earn $310,000 in 2024, though he’s expected to net more on his new deal as signing bonuses are taxed at a lower rate for American players. He had a $125,000 off-season roster bonus due on Monday, Jan. 15, which led to his deal being renegotiated. wbbfan, Piggy 1 and HardCoreBlue 2 1

Stan in his prime was better than Walby in his prime, and that is the highest praise I can heap. bigg jay 1
rebusrankin Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 Ok, Walters, you've earned at least a two day break from us bitching with that Bryant announcement.
Mike Posted January 17 Report Posted January 17 I would imagine Lawler restructuring (which was filed with the league two days ago, only announced today) will lead to a move more consequential than Stanley coming back. I would assume we’ll hear Schoen is back before the end of the week. Noeller, MOBomberFan, Goalie and 4 others 7

It has to open for some of them first. Not sure it is for schoen or Brady. Not hearing of any workouts for either As for Stanley, Welcome back. honestly I have a weird feeling about bombers bringing back all the vets. I feel that things could get ugly if time decides to catch up on these guys all at once. Thought signs were showing last season now doubling down a year later.
