For real? If Deebo signs a contract extension then the signing bonus counts towards the 2022 cap?
Yes

Who is correct? Because these are two different answers.
"Aaron Rodgers recently signed a five-year extension with a $35 million signing bonus to extend his contract though the 2019 season. With the signing bonus for the extension, it actually impacts the cap every year of his entire contract, rather than just the years extended. This means that Rodgers' signing bonus will be worth $5 million against the cap each year for the next seven years. Any previous signing bonus will still count for the years under the previous contract."
