Jordan Mailata is the latest Eagles’ player to have his contract restructured, which will create $7.646 million in cap savings in 2024 and $7.779 million in cap savings in 2025. Mailata had his four-year $64 million extension that he signed before the 2021 season that will keep him under contract through the 2025 season.
Jordan Mailata: Updated Contract Year-by-Year
- 2023 Base Salary: $1.08M
- 2023 Cap Hit: $7.471M (previous cap hit $7.671M)
- 2023 Roster Bonus: $13.42M
- 2024 Base Salary: $1.125M
- 2024 Cap Hit: $13.445M (previous cap hit $21.091M)
- 2024 Option Bonus: $14.975M

- 2025 Option Bonus: $17.530M
- Up to $6.4m escalator with Pro Bowl or 1st/2nd team All-Pro
- 2026-29: Void Years
A restructure of Mailata’s contract was inevitable, but the Eagles went ahead and got it done early by paying out large base salaries in option bonuses for the 2024 and 2025 seasons.
The Eagles then used void years from 2026-2029 to spread out those cap hits, leaving around $29.8 million in dead money in 2026, assuming Mailata plays out the contract as it’s now currently constructed.
