We’ve already seen tons of pre-free agency action with trades and cap casualties. In today’s NFL, teams are always structuring contracts with cost-cutting language on the back end of the deals. It doesn’t necessarily mean that these players are washed up as many of them are still performing quite well. Many of the players that were released this week still have good football ahead and are finding themselves a product of the inflated market value it took to sign them a few years ago. It’s the circle of life for an NFL player where it’s almost impossible to reach every incentive and see the full earnings of their contracts.
Several teams unloaded inflated contracts to save money on the cap. Could any be of interest to the Cowboys?
