I'm ignorant of what this means. I'm not a big team-sports fan, but I do find it interesting.

So I have some questions if someone doesn't mind answering.

What is a trade? What's the purpose?

Why would a team want to trade a player? Wouldn't they want to keep any good players they have?

Why would a player want to be traded? Or in this case, to not be traded?

No team is willing to take on that contract. Saints were willing to trade on the condition of a contract rework…

Let’s face it Fam. In a division with MVP Mahomes, Herbert and Wilson/Payton. Carr can’t hang

I think the problem was him trying to block his assignment and his teammates rusher every play. Combo that with noodle arm Ryan turning it over and you kinda know what the year is and shut it down. Talent like that doesn’t just disappear.

His current deal is favorable to any team looking to sign him. They can cut him every year with minimal dead money. By getting cut he get's to double dip on guaranteed money and pick his own team.

Couldn’t disagree more. The only 3 cap impacts on the OL are pretty good players (Nelson, Kelly, smith). Colts LBs are incredibly talented, hell Leonard might be top 5 at the position. Secondary could use help but Gilmore is still talented and two injured safeties are returning in ‘23-‘24. They get a quarterback and they are legit. Mark my words.
