Saints Cap Moves: Derek Carr restructured, Erik McCoy restructured; J. Williams released; cap space is at -$8,543,537

It's just him being confusing. He's using "push money forward" to mean void years. The money is all still within the framework of the original deal.

Next year, he can be cut with some savings and we are done. No lingering effects.

Carr’s contract has void years through 2029, so we should get the max savings in 2025 from the restructure. I don’t think the team can choose to spread the hit out over fewer than five years if he has five total years (real + void) remaining on his deal.
