Royal was previously set to earn $4.5 million in base salary with a $6 million cap number. According to SDUT's Michael Gehlken, both numbers have been lowered, the salary reduced to a fully guaranteed total with performance incentives helping make up the difference. ... Royal showed great toughness last season, not practicing for months because of turf toe. While the brunt of his season was spent in a protective boot, he missed only one game all year.
