Carr’s cap is what it is though. It’s inevitable that it’s a large number. But Jason not mentioning an immediate 2026 release’s cap savings, and the projected 2026 cap space that the Saints will have after 2025 signings, makes it seem like the Saints are perpetually wrecked by Carr’s high 2026 cap hit/dead money. But that isn’t the case since they’ll have a way out with cap relief.
That would be like cutting Taysom this year and highlighting the $277k savings when the real story would be his $17.7 million dead cap hit. It's not significant enough to mention as it isn't the main story.
