Details have emerged this afternoon that New England Patriots tight end signed a restructured deal, providing him with some financial incentives for performance on the field in the year ahead. As reported by Adam Schefter:
Patriots reworked TE Rob Gronkowski’s contract, adding $4.3 million to his contract this year, per @RosenhausSports
Added $1 million in per game bonuses and $3.3 million in incentives, boosting max value to $13.050 million. Similar to Tom Brady structure. pic.twitter.com/XYy6xIg5Iu— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) August 30, 2018
