Glenn's contract had very little guaranteed from what I've saw.
Other teams know how to get underperforming players to take less or they cut them and use that money to sign free agents or resign overperforming players. The Bengals problems stem from paying these players most of the money upfront so they control todays payroll but they have no options when the performance drops.
