No, once they make the offer, either they pay him the salary for next year or they can sign him to a long term deal. Look at Mayfield, Browns are on the hook for over 18 million for one year (2022) and teams are reluctant to trade for Mayfield due to only 1 year contract and it appears Mayfield is messing with the Browns and will not talk to some teams for a longer contract.

In essence, Mayfield's trade value is dropping for the Browns and the Browns need to dump his 2022 salary, but can't unless they find a trade partner. They cut him, they still have to pay him the entire contract.
