Contract

The talented outside linebacker currently has a 1 year $1.4 million contract running with the Baltimore Ravens. The deal included a signing bonus of $150,000 with a cap and dead cap hit valued at $1.2 million.

He was given the franchise tag by the New York Giants in March 2015. According to reports, the tag was non-exclusive, which meant that other teams may bargain with each other. The Giants have the option of matching any offer or receiving two first-round picks in exchange.

In 2015, Pierre-Paul suffered a significant hand injury in a fireworks accident at his home. He had his right index finger severed four days later.

Pierre-Paul lost a lot of weight in the hospital after his injury and had to play the rest of the season wearing a “monstrous padded club” on his wounded hand.

On October 27, Pierre-Paul agreed to terms with the New York Giants on a one-year contract.
