The Facts: With Derek Carr headed to New Orleans, Winston now becomes a likely salary-cap casualty.
Diehards Line:
New Orleans could move on and save $4.4M against the salary cap, but it would take on $11.2M in dead money. A post-June 1 cut would save $12.8M, but no savings until then. Winston fractured his back and injured his foot at the beginning of last season and was inactive in Weeks 4 and 5. He never regained his starting job.
