We just know it was supposedly similar to $6m/yr, at an unknown number of years (could have been 1, they don't say conveniently) with less guaranteed money, and Iloka only got $5m guaranteed, or $1m a year, so less than $1m/yr guaranteed?
So if you think it's just a downsized contract of Iloka's with less guaranteed....
2yr/$12m, $1-1.5m guaranteed.... that's not particularly a "very" fair deal. He got $4m guaranteed with the Raiders, and that's even with the FA market dying out. Dude did just come off leading the NFL in INT and being a Pro Bowler. Bengals once again offer less, with less guaranteed money, and call it "similar".
Perhaps the FO has more insight into the severity of RN's injury in the playoff game. I love Reggie, but would prefer to see the guaranteed money and longer term contracts invested in our younger core
