Archuleta's Contract - Redskins Insider

If what JLC says is correct than I would assume the Redskins would get whatever next team gives in bonus could be used to offset the cap hit - although I doubt it would be anywhere near the bonus he is still to count against the Skins. I guess if you are another team and needed a punt team captain that would be worth the vet minimum - so maybe we are talking about a $50,000 bonus or whatever the average vet minimum contracts gets these days.
