The Steelers “can” cut Chris Boswell, but I don’t think that they will. There is nothing in the CBA that would preclude them from, for example, putting him on IR today and then designating him a post-June 1 release on the first day of the 2019 league year. Boswell is due a $2 million roster bonus on or about the 5th day of the 2019 league year. In order to make that release one that they can absorb financially, they would need to release him before his roster bonus comes due (typically the 4th or 5th day of the league year in Steelers contracts).
