@"Kentis" said:@"greediron" said:@"MaroonBells" said: Read somewhere that this surgery could prevent the Vikings from trading Cook (if they so choose), since he wouldn't be able to pass a physical in time. Seems doubtful that a trade would be likely given his salary.I think his guaranteed money is all but gone, $2 milion in 2023 guaranteed salary left…
He has an injury guaranty for $2M. The surgery was due to an injury. So that $2M guaranty kicks in this March. If we are going to get rid of him, we need to do it before the $2M becomes guaranteed otherwise his cap relief will have been reduced by $2M. Also, as mentioned above, he is much harder to trade now and any compensation will be reduced. Pretty shrewd move. If we want to avoid the $2M hit you have to cut him and get nothing or try to trade him - if that is even possible now.
