It happens with a player on good terms who is willing to rework their deal.

Brady gets restructured about every year it seems.

It's mostly much ado about nothing.

It's what you do with players you are confident want to keep on the roster for a long time. Keep pushing the cap hit into the last year of his deal then when the final year comes extend his contract and shift the cash

I think the design is to allow us to sign jack and ngokue to new deals in 2019. We only really have fowler and maybe Yeldon to resign from the 2015 class
