They also cheated the cap by delaying his larger cap hits to future seasons. I don’t see how they can wiggle out of paying the piper for this sequence:
2022 - $46M of cash, only $9M cap hit
2023 - $46M of cash, only $19M cap hit
2024 - $46M of cash, only $28M cap hit
So $138M of cash and only $56M of combined cap hits across the last 3 years. Looks like they owe $82 million to the salary cap gods.
