People reference 9/1 as being the date he would have been due ~25m option bonus, if he was on the active roster. It's the same money that was voided in July '25. Not totally sure what happens with that money if he were to return in two weeks (for example). I believe JD claimed that it gets pushed to next year, but I would take that claim with a grain of salt. Could be right, but have no real reason to believe it's right (especially given JD's other claims).
He can return at any time.
Yeah, I'm curious how this money is given back to the he team and gives salary cap. I wonder if it gets added to next years cap space or if it hits this year sometime?
id have to look into the specifics but im pretty sure its a large chunk of change that could give us the ability to add a stud.
