Here are cap figures, bonuses, base salaries, and more.

On Monday, the San Francisco 49ers signed LB Kwon Alexander to a 4-year, $54 million deal that includes $27 million guaranteed. Today, we received the full details of the contract.

It should be noted that Aaron’s numbers added up to $300,000 short of the $54M. Whether it’s a rounding error, or there are other unnamed incentives we don’t know about, these numbers aren’t concrete. It could be workout bonuses, since the 49ers often include them. The signing and roster bonuses for the next two years come up about $2 million short of the guaranteed money Aaron lists as well.

Alexander received a $4 million signing bonus, and is due a $8.5 million roster bonus on the fourth day of the new league year. His 2019 base salary of $1.75 million is fully guaranteed at signing, and his 2020 base salary of $11.25 is guaranteed for injury. The 2020 base salary becomes fully guaranteed on April 1, 2020.

Here’s a breakdown of each year, pending any additional developments. The team was wise to protect themselves of injury. The contract actually reads a lot like Jerick McKinnon’s where the 49ers can get out of it early.
