Signing Bonus is spread out equally over each year under contract for cap accounting. Ex. $1M signing bonus on a 4-year contract = 250000/yr. Balance remaining equals how many years still under contact multiplied by the average signing bonus accounted for per year (ex. after 1 year the balance would be 750000). Trading/waiving a player will result in a cap hit of the signing bonus balance.
