There are always those players that a lot of fans haven't realized have gotten washed and are therefore shocked when they are traded/released, or players that simply aren't worth the cap hit. So which are those players for your favorite team?

But they’d have to trade him somewhere (for basically nothing but here please take this contract off our hands) for that to make sense right?

Currently his contract runs through 2025, but after next year the cap hit to cut him drops from roughly $20M to $10M which I think could be when they part ways if he doesn’t just retire. I’m not sure if Tyler would even want to be traded at this point in his career, and I agree that his salary makes it unlikely that they could recoup much for moving him so I think it’s more likely he stays for another year and then is either cut or hangs it up but the writing is on the wall with how the team has been rebuilding imo.
