Cedric may be able to answer that.

No, he get’s the $850k? Unless the contract says different.

If it’s not an employer-employee situation then I don’t think workers comp would be in play. But I’ve definitely wondered what happens if an injury happens, or the player decides to opt out of the season after 4 games.

These are 1099 contacts or self employed. No donor is paying employment taxes or paying for additional insurances.
