Ross Jackson explores a Carr trade to Giants [ESPN NFL Nation Giants reporter Jordan Raanan says Derek Carr could be a trade option for Giants]

St. Widge said
I think our best hope is to find a trade partner that Carr wants to go to so that he will re-work his deal in a way that allows us to trade him without as bad of a dead cap hit and where he gets a new contract from his new team that pays him more money long term. But, I kind of doubt that team is out there. But let's hope the Giants do it.

Then again, Carr has shown that he will force a team to cut him or pay him so he may not be willing to go anywhere. Not that I blame him. We didn't have to offer him the contract that we did.

There simply isn't a team or situation that can save us from the $40m in prorated bonuses. If he leaves, it goes to the cap as dead money. The best we can do in 2025 is trade him, take the $40m in dead money and thank our lucky stars we got out from under him and got $11 million in cap relief for the year. But that IS this best we can do. That or restructure him and kick that can one more time. That's really it.
