The Broncos used void years and a relatively rare salary cap rule in order to keep Frank Clark’s cap hit low in 2023 at the expense of some “dead cap” in 2024. Here’s how they did it.
It’s time for everybody’s least favorite part of the NFL calendar: Summer school.The Broncos last month signed Frank Clark to what was widely reported as a one-year deal worth about $5.5 million guaranteed with the chance for the veteran pass-rusher and three-time Pro Bowler to earn up to $7.5 million based on incentives.
Instead, NFL Players Association data currently shows the Broncos sitting at $10.301 million in space as of July 12.Denver used void years and a relatively rare salary cap rule in order to keep Clark’s cap hit low in 2023 at the expense of someBasics first: Clark’s base salary is $3.5 million in 2023, according to NFLPA data, and a league source with access to the full contract terms said he also got a $1.5 million signing bonus and $510,000 in per game roster bonuses for a $5.
Clark’s number for Year 1 is $5.45 million . Since 2024 is a void year, the relatively rare rule outlined above applies and the league minimum is used as placeholder to make the calculation.

History As It Happens: Otto and MiepNote: Audio clips of 'A Small Light' are courtesy NatGeo. Anne Frank's 'A Diary of a Young Girl' has been read by tens of millions of people in dozens of languages. It is an entry point for Holocaust studies for each new generation of school students. Her tragic story has been the subject of stage plays and movies, too. And now the young Dutch woman who tried to hide the Frank family from the Nazis in occupied Amsterdam is the subject of a moving dramatic series produced by NatGeo and streaming on Hulu.
