Former Seattle Seahawks backup quarterback Drew Lock has signed a new contract with the New York Giants. The deal is worth up to $8 million, with a base salary of $5 million and additional incentives. Lock may have a chance to earn significant playing time with the Giants.
Former Seattle Seahawks backup quarterback Drew Lock is starting anew with the New York Giants . At the time, ESPN’s Adam Schefer reported that it was a one-year deal worth up to $5 million was the initial report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter. It turns out that isn’t the case, and perhaps his new deal is part of why Seattle opted not to re-sign him. The Athletic’s Giants beat reporter Dan Duggan uncovered some details in Lock’s contract.
It’s not inconceivable to think that Lock has a shot at significant playing time and thus the opportunity to reach his incentive targets. A minimum of 224 pass attempts is essentially the equivalent of 6-8 starts, and Jones has had two seasons with a combined 23 games missed. For context, new Seahawks backup QB Sam Howell is on a rookie contract with a non-guaranteed base salary of $985,000.
