Spotrac's own web site.   It must be only showing it from the Seahawks perspective now.

Not sure if it’s updated. The tweet is from spotracs official Twitter. Just saying taking on 7 mil dead cap for a 2026 6th, for a guy the GM extended… is GM malpractice. No other way around it.

It looks correct upon further inspection even though the spotrac web site doesn't appear to flow logically following the trade.  It was a failure to have extended him, however, we were very likely parting ways this upcoming offseason and the dollar amount of the dead cap by itself isn't that big of a deal on its own.  The cap expands each year and you can easily push money into future years from other contracts.  This by itself isn't going to prevent us from doing anything next offseason that we want to do and the smaller dead cap figure that will be realized for 2024 is meaningless at this point.  Getting a 6th rounder for a guy not likely to be here next season with young guys waiting in the wings to take his spot versus cutting him after the season and getting nothing was smart business from where we stand right now.  The criticism over extending him is valid though.
