Even if they weren’t aware; they actually think there’s cap savings in one of Kelvins game checks? The thread wasn’t speculation to help the team, it was speculation to punish Kelvin for using personal time

and you know that how? Every time someone asks about money, its always for the same reason; The Salary Cap.

It is a union job and is called benefits. Some folks have jobs like that. When I work now I demand benefits like that and sick time

When discussing a player and his contribution to a team it is perfectly appropriate to discuss his salary because the salary cap is an element of a franchise's team building strategy.

Because we’re talking about a game check, are we going to make a free agency splash with his game check? Or we resigning Gallup with it?

A game check is not saving a teams cap because they used an excused personal time that’s already written up in a contract.

Whether he gets paid or not, I want him on the field. That is what matters.

If the team has excused the absence, why would he not be paid and why would we care?

This has no cap implications even if he wasn't paid for this week.

However, if we are mad at the player(s), we can wish he didn't get paid. Hell, Jaylon Smith might have ended up destitute and homeless.

I think we should include this in our next McCarthy Critique. Clock management and too many excused absences, is Mike McCarthy becoming Camp Cupcake Counselor II?

For those in the know does Kelvin get a game check for an excused absence, or does he not get paid for the game he misses.if he does not get paid do the Cowboys get some relief on the salary cap?
Just wondering.

How much cap relief were you hoping to gain from a rookie's game check?

A rookies game check isn't going to have any cap impact lol

This is so petty, worrying about another man's pockets.
