After reading alot about these guys, Z Johnson is a better RG, and E Jenkins is a better LG. I know that leaves Wypler at C, or a rookie, so why not play the new guys at their strongest position?

I think this is a post-June release.

The guy should be barred from seeking a new team for his own health.

I think the Browns thought Njoku would have been extended by now but couldn't come to terms in 2025 when they visited him in Miami. Then Harold Fannin came along.

Either way, it's not an big issue.

From the looks of this the Browns may have got some of their insurance money from JOK and Watson.

$17m?

I thought Watson's cap relief was supposed to be ~$40m. Hopefully this isn't all the cap relief we're getting from guys that were injured.

I also thought it was + $40 million just for Watson.

Huge deductible? naughtydevil

I'm not sure but I would highly doubt that insurance would cover an entire players salary. You know how it works. The devil is in the details.


Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

I enjoyed watching Njoku.. He was Fun... He was never going to make you forget Ozzie. But he was fun to watch and was productive most of the time. We're still going to need another TE.

I dove in a little deeper a few days ago. I won't bore you with the whole conversation, but this part is pertinent, AI gave me an answer with some vague terms, so I asked for a little depth...

explain: "minor predefined offsets over five years as per the policy structure"

"Minor predefined offsets over five years as per the policy structure" refers to how some NFL player injury insurance policies spread a small portion of the cap relief across multiple future years, rather than applying the entire amount in one lump sum.

Policy Design
These policies often include a clause where, after the primary credit hits the next league year's cap (e.g., 2026 for Watson's 2025 miss), the insurer amortizes a remaining balance—typically around $5 million annually—over five years to match the contract's guaranteed money structure and avoid overwhelming a single year's cap.


It also explained that these terms must be in the original policy. Teams cannot arbitrarily decide how to spread the payment after the fact.

5 years x5 million =25 million
Then...
25+17 (the reported lump sum) =42 million

I mean, I guess this may be a strong possibility?
