I see many possible answers:
1) His trade value is nil. Poor play plus malcontent plus large salary with another year left (though only $2 mil or so dead cap) plus COVID hurting revenues. Only hope is getting another malcontent with an even worse contract.
2) We can save $10 mil by cutting him next year.
3) Mike Brown does not like to reward players that undermine the team. Unless we get blown away by a trade offer, they'll just bury him on the bench/inactive list. Maybe a better offer comes in the offseason or a malcontent swap becomes possible.
4) Also possible that things are better in private than public (unlikely) & they are hoping to repair things to the point he can show well for a game & then we can trade him for something.
5) Perhaps Lou may be on the outs soon and ownership thinks a new DC could mend things.
