Pacman Jones To Police “I hope you die . . . You’re gonna be out of a job”

Jones' 2017 cap hit is $7,666,666.

If they cut him they don't have to pay him his 2017 base salary of $6.3 million.  The signing bonus has already been paid, but if they cut him before June 1st the 2017 cap hit (dead money) is $1.3 million and $666K after June 1st.  I'm not positive, but I believe if he is still with the team come June first they would have already paid him his $500K roster bonus and $200K workout bonus if he participated.  So I think the cap hit is the same whether they cut him now and not pay the roster and workout bonuses or after June 1st when he has already collected the roster and workout bonus.

Long story short, the Bengals save approximately $6 million by cutting him.  That's $6 million which could be used to re-sign Kirkpatrick or Zeitler or sign a FA.

Right on, wasn't sure about all the numbers but I thought from previous issues with players that a suspension from the league would result in not having any dead money, especially if the league finally says enough is enough and just puts him out for good.
