Michael Pierce is entering the second year of a three-year contract with the Baltimore Ravens.

Michael Pierce Salary

In 2022, Baltimore signed Pierce to a three-year, $16,500,000 contract. The deal included a $5,715,000 signing bonus, with $6,750,000 guaranteed at signing and an average annual salary of $5,500,000.

Michael Pierce Cap Hit

Pierce carries a cap hit of $3,237,000 this season. He has a dead cap hit of $4,645,000.

Michael Pierce Potential Extension

With two years remaining on his latest deal, Pierce has something to prove before he earns his next contract. The veteran defensive tackle has played in just 11 games over the past three seasons. Granted, an entire year was lost to COVID. Still, the year off has put Pierce in a deficit relative to his competitors.

Pierce has been on the high end of the spectrum for nose tackles on his last two deals. Unless he improves his durability, the few teams looking for a nose tackle won’t come knocking on his door. Instead, they could pursue other, more reliable options rather than rolling the dice with Pierce.
