The Chris Carson cap conundrum

Okay, so it’s not really a conundrum the Seattle Seahawks face in regards to the upcoming decision on Chris Carson’s status, but it sounded cool so that’s the title for the day.

In any case, there has been a lot of talk about whether or not the Seahawks will keep Carson, or whether he could be released after June 1, freeing up some 2022 cap space for the Hawks. In particular, the questions have centered around whether or not the neck injury which ended Carson’s 2021 season will have any impact on the ability of the team to release Carson, and if he is released, what impact that could potentially have on the cap for the team.
