Details on Taysom Hill's contract extension with the Saints
Per Charles Robinson of Yahoo Sports, Hill is cashing in with a two-year deal valued at $21 million, with $16 million in guarantees and another $1 million in incentives. That's an average of $10.5 million per year, with 76% of the new money guaranteed.

No. It says its a $21 million deal with $16 million guaranteed and another $1 million in incentives. The "another $1 million" refers to in addition to the $16 million guaranteed, not to the $21 million. Anyway, this is silly and doesn't really matter. He costs what he costs. We have the money and we are a better team with him this year than without him. And if he costs $16 million next year, that may be high for an unproven starting QB, but it's only for one year and it leaves the Saints options wide open after that.
