It's actually a really solid cut if they decide to go that way. Of course he will only make 7m total in 2023 (less since 2.4mil is is a total for per game roster bonuses in 2023). So its 7ish mil for a high quality backup at Tackle and Guard late into the season.

I agree the amount goes up post June 1, however if they cut him today, while still not cleared, a medical settlement would be required, which is likely to be as high as $2M. So change the original $4M to $5M... still not a huge savings if LC can get healthy. IMHO
