If the team wants to save $16.6 mil - they can let him go with a dead cap hit of 5 mil. 

It is very possible he's a cap casualty - and he did not play this well last year prior to getting himself suspended. 
I think the contract year performance is fair to consider. 

I'd call it a 50/50 chance he's back at this point. Lots of moving parts this offseason cap-wise.

I'm aware. I'm just saying it's not like he's a pending FA with no contract right now auditioning for other teams.

Anticipation of being a cap cut after you just jeopardized your standing with a suspension can be just as much motivation as a contract year to step up your game. 

Wish he'd have stepped up last year. I'd feel way more inclined to find a way to keep him. 
As things stand - he's gonna really have to finish the year on a high note for me to not personally see him as someone else's gamble. 

I know he has a leadership role and he's all bought in supposedly - but the staff has zero confidence in him playing anywhere but left tackle - he acted like a [BLEEP] when asked about playing another position - and the team has a LT ready to take his place in Little. 

There are lots of creative ways to massage the cap, but Trevor, Allen, Ridley and Cam all reupping in one offseason is gonna be tough.
