    probably has something to do with the $3 million they can save

    and actually JD made him the highest paid punter so it’s very different from that

    In fairness it is a lot of money for a punter but fuck, Morstead earned it for the amount of use he got in 23

    That was 4 years ago though. The guy is 39 now. I don't think the lesson here is no sign ancient guys for 3 times the replacement salary until they are completely broken down. In fact we learned the opposite with Duane Brown, Greg, Tyron Smith, etc... Morstead is 39 and is finished. Good call to move on from him and Greg.

    It saved us 1.5 million. He was set to earn 2 million this season, with half a million guaranteed.
