I don't think that would work out. $150K is about what a player would earn on the practice squad. With expanded practice squads this year anyone who is already under contract should be able to make a practice squad.
If a player opts out then he will be behind everyone trying to make roster next year.
Seems like the worst think a marginal player could do is take a year off.
