Loomis always has this avenue available as he commonly includes this in contracts. There are also restructures and extensions that can be negotiated to free up quite a bit more space, if required. Caps are very fluid in the NFL. Sites like Over the Cap and Spotrac only show a snapshot, not what is truly available. In other words, the Saints have plenty of room to stay relevant this off-season. |
