Underhill: I think everyone involved knows Carr cannot play this year at his current salary

Carr earns a $10 million roster bonus on March 5th. Do you think this will affect the Saints timeline at all?
That $10m bonus is paid on the fifth day of the league year, which will be 3/16. It’s already fully guaranteed, so it shouldn’t impact the timeline.

The bigger date of concern would be 3/14, when his $30m salary becomes fully guaranteed. We need to be cap compliant by 3/12, so while the $30m salary guarantee may affect what we do, we almost certainly will have decided what to do before then.
