This is very interesting.
Even though the Patriots signed Darrelle Revis to a one-year, $12 million deal, they have an option for a second year.
Tom Pelissero of USA TODAY Sports has the details.
Darrelle Revis' deal with #Patriots includes an option for 2015 at $20M, including a $12 roster bonus.

Revis got a $10M signing bonus and has a $1.5M gtd base salary for 2014. Another $500K available in per-game roster bonuses.

If #Patriots exercise option before end of 2014 league year, he'd get a $12M roster bonus April 1, 2015 and have a base of $7.5M in '15.

That is a club option for 2015 on Revis, per details filed with the NFLPA. Must be exercised by end of '14 league year.

So Revis’s contract with the Patriots is a two-year, $32 million deal, with of course the second year as a club option.
