So I assume he is gone now, regardless of Watson

The new league year starts now. The contracts of Jameis Winston, Terron Armstead will automatically void if they don't have new deals. That's $15.9 million in dead money applied to the 2022 cap. Tre'Quan Smith also has $940,000 in dead money since his contract also voided.

It would have to be extremely team friendly.

Not necessarily. But, if we sign him to a new contract, it will count additionally against the cap, separate from the existing dead money we already have. Unless he agreed to a deal before 3 Pm and it hasn't been reported, we're stuck with that hit.

We are in a tight spot. There aren't a ton of avenues left to create the space we're going to need. Likely we will need players on the team today to restructure their deals and take pay cuts.
