If they give him a 25 million signing bonus, they are taking him at a minimum from zero guaranteed money in current contract to at least 41 million in guarantees plus he can earn 200K per game in 2025 currecnt contract, not guaranteed, but hopefully he earns as he stays healthy.
I am more optimistic after reading this knowing hey have agreed to the money portion.
Guarantees to a player beyond the first year is really nothing more than security.
A team can offer and sign you to a contract, with no intention of paying you that in later years, i.e., not guaranteed. If you're a player, that's a bit disingenuous. The later guarantees just means you're going to see that money and the team isn't just going to cut you to save bucks.
