That's okay I am sure about it. In fact Dennard is already making 8.5 this year on the 5th year option making him tied for 20th highest paid CB in the league with Chris Harris. Any extension would not include any additional money at this point beyond that 8.5 as that isn't how Bengals structure extensions in general meaning Eiffert has no impact. Now in terms of Geno or Carlos, you can easily structure the contract to escalate next year with guaranteed to offset any cap short comings this year.
It made no difference, move on.
