According to Field Yates, the Raiders have restructured C Rodney Hudson‘s contract, converting $11.6 million of his base salary into a signing bonus.
That results in the money being spread over the remainder of his contract and creates $9.28 million in additional cap space for the Raiders this year.
Hudson, 30, is a former second-round pick of the Chiefs back in 2011. He played out his four-year, $3,506,100 rookie contract in Kansas City before agreeing to a five-year, $44.5 million contract with the Raiders for the 2015 season.
Hudson was set to make a base salary of $8.25 million for the 2019 season before signing a three-year extension with the Raiders worth $33.75 million with $24.4 million guaranteed.
In 2019, Hudson started 15 games for the Raiders and was rated by Pro Football Focus as the No. 13 center in the league out of 37 qualifying players.
