Spotrac article says signs are pointing to a Derek Carr release

He could be traded & restructured...
There are always options.

There isn't a clear path for any of the options that we have with him...
We will have to see what the staff decides to do.

Yes he can be traded and restructured, but that would still give him his full 40 million he is under contract for this season. He wouldn’t get that as a free agent.

Carr would lose possibly tens of millions if he chose to be cut over traded
