His cap savings in a post June 1 trade is actually $12.4 million. His $12.4 million base salary is guaranteed for 2022 so in the situation where you would cut him, the Cowboys would have to eat that $12.4 million. But because it's guaranteed base salary, if you were to trade him, that $12.4 million shifts to the team that acquires him because it's still base salary.
No one is trading for Elliott so it's all moot anyway.
Jerry made his bed with this dumb contract now he has to sit on it for another year, at least. I hope to god they don't go stupid and restructure him.
Stephen made that bed.
