We take a big hit, but it’s not 98 million (I don’t think). And could be spread over 2 years

There is zero way to reduce this $40.31M of dead cap. There is no magic Drew Brees or Bobby Bonilla method to make this disappear as the money has already been paid.

Best case is to spread $15.83M to 2023 & $24.48M to 2024 if the retirement is processed after June 1, 2023.

These numbers are exactly the same if Aaron Rodgers is traded instead of retires. The $40.31M does not transfer to the new team even if they would be willing to take some/all of it on.

A new team would have Rodgers at a $15.79M cap hit in 2023 after exercising his $58.3M option.
