Just A Simple Question Regarding This Year's FA

The teams are having players convert base salary and other bonuses eligible into a bonus, then spread that bonus out life of the contract sometimes adding voidable years reducing their 2022 cap and increasing the cap hit for future years. It also increases the dead money hit if a player does not work out or is injured and cut in some cases. Bengals could do it create another 35 to 50 million in 2022 if they want to, but why do it you don't have to so they can save for later huge contracts coming due.

The transactions page is a one by one look at the players being cut, signing or restructuring deals. It is a long list as you keep hitting more to see more transactions but you will be amazed how many guys and teams have restructured contracts in 2022 to add cap money.

good post!! ThumbsUp
