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

Did we ever solve the question as to what lever was used on the contracts of Winston and Thomas that has allowed their cap hits to be still be getting taken off the books all the way now in 2025?

There’s something we are doing that’s allowing the hits to spread out further, years out even after the player isn’t on the team, but I haven’t put my finger on it.
They were both designated as post June 1 cuts last year, which let all dead money after 2024 get charged in 2025.
