Could Derek Carr be a post-June 1 cut?

It seems like the Saints can't cut a guy.................so they extend him..................and then they can't cut him next year. At some point you have to bite the bullet, get rid of the overpaid, underperforming players that led you to a 5-12 record and move on. Even if it means another 5-12 season. What the front office is doing isn't working.
