The Los Angeles Rams made a couple of splash moves in free agency this offseason, investing into two veteran cornerbacks in Darious Williams and Tre’Davious White. Williams’ deal was announced some time ago, while White was officially signed and had his deal announced Thursday.
Tre’Davious White Cap Hit
White signed just a one-year deal with the Rams worth $ 4.25 million. 3.25 million is guaranteed, including a $ 1.75 million signing bonus. White’s cap hit for this season will be just $ 3.485M. His base salary is just $ 1.5 million.
White can also earn more money depending on his playtime incentives. The contract value increases to $ 8.5 million if White plays in 60% of the Rams defensive snaps in 2024, and there are up to $ 1 million in per-game bonuses.
Overall, this contract is a well-structured swing for upside on a veteran corner with recent medical concerns. White adds experience to a secondary in desperate need of it, and if he can stay healthy, this deal is a worthwhile gamble for the Rams for the 2024 season.
