The two parties worked out a seven-year contract worth $37.295 million with a $7.5 million signing bonus. However, there are $7.25 million in "de-escalators" tied to workout requirements and weight restrictions, a source told Comcast SportsNet Bay Area's Matt Maiocco on Wednesday.
For the final five years of the contract, $1.25 million is annually dependent on Davis' participation in offseason workouts and his weight, Maiocco reported. The exact weight numbers Davis needs to maintain weren't made available.
