Underhill thinks Carr will be Saints starter [mod edit: Moore-Carr meeting went well; Saints plan is to keep Carr in 2025 & figure out contract]

It gets treated like a lump sum signing bonus. It's just a different avenue to a restructure.

He has no reason to turn it down unless he wants new new money.
Right, so my #2 "Restructure" is basically the same thing. Same money, restructured somehow. There are people here who think he's taking a paycut. He has NO reason to do that. He knows he won't be here much longer, it's not like he's the franchise guy and he's trying to help build a long term roster around him.
