vmax Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Should the Ravens kick the tires on this? Quote So, why would the Cowboys get rid of Smith, especially when they still owe him $7.2 million this season? We have our answer, and it has to do with the linebacker’s contract situation. Smith was set to make $9.2 million next season. That amount would become fully guaranteed if he were on the roster on March 20, 2022. But there’s a twist: Smith has an injury guarantee. That means if Smith cannot pass his physical leading up to the March 20 date, the Cowboys would have to pay the $9.2 million. Dallas decided it was worth it to eat the $7.2 million they owe Smith for this year now rather than risk him getting injured, which would cost them $9.2 million next season. They already have guys who can do this.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsylvester Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 They already have him on the team in Harrison, who tackles well but struggles in coverage. And in Mosely, who can't cover and is often out of position... Besides that, they don't have the cap room to sign him. The Packers have a deal in olace already with him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
