This why I don't like leveraging the cap to the max. I am not sure we have options for an unexpected situation like this. I think Carr could plausibly demand an extension and if we say no, we could plausibly default on the 2024 salary cap and be unable to sign any draft picks and get fined millions.

And what happens if Derek Carr leaves a game when we’re up by 17? LMFAO

No. We lose 18 - 17. FACT. And that’s a BAD THING.
