From what I am finding, Browning makes $750,000 in 2023 which is the league minimum.
As a player accrues seasons by being on a Team's Roster 6 or more games in a season the minimum increases
to $870,000 in year 2 and $940,000 in year 3.
*I just did an Internet Search for this information, so others on this Board may know more or differently.
If so, please clarify.
Say Browning does very well and gets offered $870,000 as an exclusive rights free agent.
If I were him that would be insulting to me given how valuable Quarterbacks are in the NFL.
Holdout for more money ? -or- Am I looking at this the wrong way or with wrong information ?
