Maybe the production of Mixon or Boyd drop big time.
Maybe they decide to extend Burrow or Higgins or Bates or Bell or Wilson or Pratt or Jonah or Hurst, and they need extra cap space.
Maybe they want to sign some big outside free agents next off-season and want the space.
Mixon's contract only goes up 1.4M from '22 to '23 but his dead cap is still 5.5M. Boyd's dead does go down to 1.4M but i'd rather expect them to restructure and add a couple years at a lower cap hit. If i'm Boyd, i don't know how much interest a 29 yr old WR is going to get on the open market and he has a pretty good gig going here.
