Browns fans should be very excited to bring in Troy Hill. The former CB van Rams agreed with the Browns on Thursday to take over the team’s position. And a really good deal got even better for the Browns.
The terms of the deal are much more favorable to the Browns than initially reported. What was reported as a four-year deal for $ 24 million by some sources is in fact not correct.
According to Mary Kay Cabot of cleveland.com, Hill signed for two years, not four, although there are two voidable seasons at the end of the contract. Instead of $ 24 million, it’s just $ 9 million with the chance of hitting up to $ 10 million. A full $ 4 million is guaranteed to Hill at the time of signing.
The transaction has still not been officially processed, so the reported numbers may change one more time. But landing a very good starting corner for $ 4.5 million a season is a home run from a deal for Browns GM Andrew Berry and the finance team.
