Expect to hear more stories like this in the coming weeks. Cap relief is incoming.

Restructuring isn't really cap relief overall. Sure it reduces his number this year helping us get under, but all that savings is pushed into future caps. Restructuring contracts is why we had to gut the roster in the years before Coughlin was fired. The players love restructuring because all that money put on future caps is paid to him with a big, up-front check virtually guaranteeing the player is glued to the roster for several more years even if he regresses.

I am by no means a "cap guru" but I would think that if they gave him enough of his remaining "guaranteed money" and current salary from the remainder of his contract up front, and spread the "non-guaranteed" money over the new contract it would clear some cap space, correct?

There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.
