Bucs Releasing Shaq Barrett

I don’t think the move saves them any space. He had a $14m cap charge and $26m dead money, so they actually have $12m less space this year.

What it does is open up future space. They avoid paying him a $15m option bonus, so it saves them that amount plus his other 2024 salary/bonus over two years ($26m cap hit this year versus $43m spread over two years).
