(WXYZ) — New Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff is already helping out the team, restructuring his contract to open up salary cap space.
According to Field Yates, the team converted $20 million of Goff's salary into a signing bonus.
That restructure will create $15 million in salary cap space for this year, but does add $5 million in cap charges to Goff's contract over the next three years.
Now, the Lions have more room to operate for the rest of this offseason.
