Kendrick Bourne’s new deal with Patriots is very team-friendly (report)
The details on Kendrick Bourne's extension have emerged.

Initially reported as a “three-year deal worth up to $33 million” by ESPN’s Adam Schefter, it’s actually far more team-friendly than that would lead one to believe. Yes, it does max out at a possible $33 million, but in a breakdown obtained by the Boston Herald’s Andrew Callahan, only $8 million of that is guaranteed money. More than half of the guarantee comes in a $4.2 million signing bonus, then there’s only $3.8 million remaining. It’s a heavily incentivized deal.
