Eagles receiver Jeremy Maclin wanted a one-year deal. And he got a one-year deal.

Per a league source, he’ll be getting $3.5 million guaranteed under that one-year deal. The full base value, with signing bonus, base salary, workout bonus, and 46-man per-game roster bonuses, is $5.5 million.

The biggest variable in that equation is the per-game roster bonus. For each game that he’s not on the 46-man active roster, he doesn’t receive the payment.

The deal also includes another $500,000 in available incentives, pushing the maximum value to $6 million.

A first-round pick in 2009, Maclin tore an ACL during training camp. He wanted a one-year deal so that he can cash in on the open market next year.
