Allen "only" had $100,038,000 'guaranteed at signing' which is the truly important number vs the $150M 'fully guaranteed'. He'll get that money even if he's injured and out of the NFL or is released/cut. The $150M assumes he remains on the roster and does not have a career ending injury.

The $133M 'guaranteed at signing' would be the second highest truly guaranteed dollar amount behind Watson that would protect Lamar against career ending injury and a release/cut down the road. It would put Lamar ahead of Russell Wilson who currently has the second most 'guaranteed at signing' total at $124M.
