    A-MAC Picks Chris Russell’s Brain on Contract Restructures & Void Years
    Mar 4 2026
    A-MAC picks Chris Russell’s brain on the often-confusing mechanics of NFL contract restructures, diving into how teams use void years to create short-term cap relief and why those moves can come with serious long-term consequences. Chris breaks down how pushing money into future seasons may look smart in the moment, but often leaves franchises boxed in years later, even after the players involved are no longer on the roster. Using teams like the Dallas Cowboys as a cautionary example, Russell explains how repeated restructures and void years can clog the salary cap, limit roster flexibility, and force teams into tough decisions that ultimately slow progress instead of accelerating it.
