New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen is not a fan of restructuring contracts or adding void years in order to clear salary cap space. In fact, he has frequently referred to it as a “last resort.”
But with cornerback James Bradberry and running back Saquon Barkley still on the team, Schoen was forced to make a difficult decision.
On Monday, the Giants reworked the contract of cornerback Adoree’ Jackson, converting $8.965 million of his deal into a signing bonus and adding a void year. The move clears $5.98 million in cap space.
