Field Yates reports that the Packers have converted $13.835 million of NT Kenny Clarkโs 2023 compensation into a signing bonus in recent days, which created $11.068 million of cap room.
This is the second straight offseason that the Packers have reworked Clark’s contract.
Green Bay now has around $17 million of cap room available.
Clark, 26, is a former first-round pick of the Packers back in 2016. He was entering the final year of his four-year, $9.3 million contract when the Packers picked up his fifth-year option.
Clark stood to make a base salary of $7,690,000 for the 2020 season under the fifth-year option when Green Bay signed him to a four-year, $70 million extension.
In 2021, Clark appeared in 16 games for the Packers and recorded 48 total tackles, four sacks, and a fumble recovery.
