Franchise Tag:
Teams may franchise tag one UFA each season. A player may receive the franchise tag a maximum of 3 seasons in a row. If a player is tagged 2 years in a row, then he must be paid 130% of the current year's franchise tag. If a player is tagged 3 years in a row, then he must be paid 160% of the current year's franchise tag. If the players previous contract year is higher than the franchise tag price then the team must pay that same percentage above their previous contract.
Example: DeAndre Hopkins previous year contract is 15M then the team would pay 115% above previous years contract for a FT1, 130% for FT2, 160% for FT3
* Franchise tags are based on the average salary of the 5 highest paid players at each position (excluding other Franchise Tags) and will be determined at the end of each season for the following season.
Contract Extensions:
Each GM will be allowed to offer a contract extension to one player each offseason as long as that player has at least one year remaining on their contract. The extension may add up to 3 years on a player's current contract but a contract may never exceed 6 years. Players can only be extended once.
Players on a RFA contract can be extended as long as they have at least one year remaining before hitting Restricted Free Agency. If they are extended then they lose their RFA status.
Contract extensions may be traded but the player being extended must be noted in the trade. A team may not be in possession of multiple extensions at once. If an extension is traded for, it must be used immediately.
