I believe this team was around 6 or 8 million under the cap going into the season. The Bengals could had afford him, but the front office didn’t want to spend. Katie s just like the old man. I am surprised no one has asked the question on this board about why they were under the cap going into the season.
Also, shame on you for questioning Caesar sharp intellect. Only his opinion matters n this board

It is definitely not just opinion, and probably is intellect, but more so understanding how the NFL and my own team works.
Not understanding the NFL is magnified in some peoples comments. Bates isnt just making 16M this season, he is being paid that over 4 seasons. You know, when Burrow and Chase and OBJr and possibly Tee are getting paid.
Not understanding your own team is revealed in asking why they are under the cap this season. We are ALWAYS under the cap. How do you NOT know this? The reason for it is in case we need to make a late addition to the team like we did in 2021 and more importantly the leftover cap flows into the following season giving us more cap space.
