Seahawks take action on February 16 by taking no action. The Seattle Seahawks’ decision to guarantee quarterback Geno Smith’s $12.7 million basic salary for the 2024 season was the major development regarding the team’s cap predicament. The deadline was February 16th, and Seattle chose to keep Smith on the roster rather than guarantee the pay and save roughly $14 million in cap space by releasing Geno. He is almost guaranteed to start for the Seahawks in September if he isn’t dealt by March 18, the deadline for his $9.6 million roster bonus. Three other Seahawks, meanwhile, had their entire or…

Just in: Blue Jays openers are sidelined again due to injuries Last year, the Blue Jays’ starting rotation was the foundation of the squad. They put on consistently strong performances that kept the team in games they shouldn’t have won.

Baseball players will inevitably sustain injuries, and pitchers are particularly vulnerable due to the unusual motions needed to launch a ball over 90 mph into a small target. However, Kevin Gausman,…
Bills’ $16 million “essential” starter is anticipated to leave The Buffalo Bills will still be trying to win the Super Bowl in 2024, but they’ll appear very different in the following campaign. The Bills are around $51 million over the salary cap limit, per OverTheCap.com. There isn’t much leeway, even though Josh Allen’s contract can be easily restructured to cut that number in half for Bills general manager Brandon Beane. Leonard Floyd, a defensive end, is regarded as the best possibility to join the market out of the team’s 22 prospective free agents. Last summer, Buffalo signed linebacker Floyd to…

Three Giants Contracts Nullified as Dead Money Amounts NFL general managers often dislike adding voidable years to the end of player contracts for a very good reason: at the time the contract expires, the player may not be on the roster any longer, but the remaining portion of his prorated signing bonus will still be due.

Quarterback Tyrod Taylor ($1.4 million), defensive lineman A’Shawn Robinson ($2.1 million), and cornerback Adoree’ Jackson ($2.988 million) are the…
