Saints Restructure Brees' Contract (10,8 cap space) MERGED

I think that number would be correct if Drew plays next year.

Prior to this we had a $10M cap hit in dead money in 2020. With this restructure we add another $10M. So that's a $20M hit in dead money. If he plays, then we add salary to that.

At least that's how I understand it. Still makes it look like this is his last year, but that remains to be seen.

Yep, I corrected my statement already... and I agree.
