Update:
Tom Silverstein reports the Packers converted $3.91 million of S Adrian Amos‘ base salary to a signing bonus and added three voidable years to his deal to spread out the hit.
Silverstein says that should create an additional $3.128 million in cap space for the Packers as they look for ways to get creative and keep the team together.
Adam Schefter reports that the Packers have restructured the contract of S Adrian Amos on Friday to free up some cap room this offseason.
Amos was set to count $10.3 million against the Packers’ salary cap and was owed a $1.5 million roster bonus due next week.
This move should create around $3 million or so for the Packers.
Amos, 27, is a former fourth-round pick of the Bears back in 2015. He played out the final year of his four-year contract worth $2.512 million before agreeing to a four-year, $37 million deal with the Packers in 2019.
Amos was set to make a base salary of $4.9 million for the 2022 season.
In 2020, Amos appeared in all 16 games for the Packers and recorded 83 tackles, two sacks, two interceptions, a fumble recovery and nine passes defended.
