Running back Aaron Jones has agreed to rework his deal with the Green Bay Packers in order to avoid a release, his agents told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
The reworked contract will see Jones earn a base salary of $11 million for the 2023 season, with $8.52 million coming as a signing bonus, Schefter adds.
Jones was scheduled to take home $16 million total prior to the restructure, per Spotrac. He was set to earn an $8.1-million base salary in addition to a $7.4-million roster bonus and a $500,000 workout bonus.
