If that was the case the time to make the move was probably weeks ago. I don't think this is anything but a sign Cousins will be cut in the offseason. Although they do hold the tiebreaker with Tampa so they could still theoretically win the division.
Complete and total mismanagement from the day they signed him and it is going to hurt for a long time. Lot of dead cap money...
I think a good chunk of it was guaranteed, but not all of it.
When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the United States you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.
didn’t he sign a guaranteed contract with Atlanta?
He did. Doesn't mean ATL can't cut him, though. Also, as @the-rube stated, not all of it was guaranteed.
According to an article on NFL.com, if ATL cuts him before March 16, they would owe him $27.5M and would incur a $65M dead cap hit. The cap hit could possibly be spread over two years.
