Junior to the 49ers!!

Looks like he’s currently numero uno now
Alphabetically at least!
 
No, NFL salaries for a given year are guaranteed for a payer as soon as he makes the 53-man roster on week 1, even if he had no guaranteed money on his deal.

So if he's on the roster on week 1, he gets all of that $840,000. If he gets cut 2 weeks later, he still gets the $840,000. If he gets cut before the regular season and makes the practice squad, he'll make his guarantee of $101,000, plus about $225,000 for being on the practice squad all season.

In order to make the full $4.3MM in his contract, he'll need to make the team every year because he has no other guaranteed money on his deal as of right now (and if he does well, he'd probably get a new contract before this one runs out).
