If CAR wants cap relief, I guess Darnold in exchange is an option. But for the 49ers, releasing Jimmy gives more cap space than taking in Darnold ($19). I think I got that right.
They don't need cap relief, they just don't want to pay Jimmy $27M. Can't blame them. IMO if Jimmy does go somewhere in a trade he's redoing that deal (possible short extension) regardless. If he get's cut he's not gonna find a ton of money on the market at this point anyway.
