The Arizona Cardinals have signed Tyrann Mathieu to his rookie contract.

In addition to the $265,000 he receives upfront, Mathieu will receive conditional roster bonuses of $99,000 in 2013 and $102,000 in 2014, and a salary guarantee of $196,000 in 2014, according to a source.

If Mathieu is cut by the team for performance reasons in the first two seasons, he will receive the full sum. However, if Mathieu is suspended for drug violations he will not get all of the money, according to sources.

The Cardinals also offered bonuses designed to keep Mathieu away from his native Louisiana in the offseason.
