The Washington Commanders finally released quarterback Carson Wentz Monday, creating over $26 million in salary cap space for 2023.
Before Wentz’s unsurprising release, Washington released veteran defensive back Bobby McCain. McCain played in every game for the Commanders over the last two seasons, making 32 starts. The move created $2.2 million in cap space, but if processed as a post-June 1 cut, that savings could rise to $4.4 million.
