All NFL contracts have injury guarantees that state that if a team tries to release a player when they cannot physically perform they still have to pay that player. Otherwise, teams could do shady stuff like cut players with season ending injuries who are in contract years to get out of paying them while losing nothing.
You stated that they could sign him and not pay him anything in 2020. If he gets hurt in 2020 they will be stuck paying him in 2021 until he recovers.
