The Facts: Amendola is scheduled to earn $5 million in base salary and count $6.8 million on the salary cap, and it is assumed that the team won't keep him around at those numbers.
Diehards Line:
This according to ESPN.com's Mike Reiss, who reminded readers that Amendola took a significant pay cut down to a base salary of $1.5 million and outperformed it last year. It's hard to imagine that type of cut again, so one wonders if $3 million may be a potential compromise for a base salary if the team asks for a reduction. Meanwhile, the additions of Chris Hogan and Nate Washington afford the team some veteran depth. It's a situation worth watching.
