It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Interesting - per Volin via Jason at OTC, this actually increases his cap charge for this year at the moment, because all incentives added once the season begins are assumed to be LTBE. This may wind up offsetting some of the "losses" they'll get from the Brady and Gronk NLTBE incentives.
****head Volin is actually correct.Volin is probably wrong.
This was said to have happened before the opened although Volin is such an idiot he probably thinks it’s based upon when he hears about it.
Why would the team agree to a restructure that would cost them cap space — particularly with a player who was perceived to be on the roster bubble coming out of camp? It’s simple, really.
The team clearly sees the value in having McCourty provide depth at multiple positions in the secondary, while also contributing on special teams. However, his contract just wasn’t commensurate with that type of role. In reality, the agreement is a player pay cut of which the salary cap benefits for the organization are deferred. Barring an epidemic of injuries to the team’s secondary, McCourty will not come close to earning much, if not all, of the playing time incentives — as evidence by his 6 defensive snaps played against the Texans. Any unearned incentive cash, as well as any unpaid per-game bonus money, will be credited to the team’s 2019 adjusted cap figure.

Jason McCourty agrees to a restructured deal to remain with the Patriots
Actually Volin is wrong. He said the cap hit was because all adjustment after the season start are considered LTBE. This was done prior to the start if the season but Volin gets it right for the wrong reason because McCourty did actually achieve them last year making it ltbe but not based upon doofus volins reasoning.****head Volin is actually correct.

Oh yea he did say it that way.Actually Volin is wrong. He said the cap hit was because all adjustment after the season start are considered LTBE.

Even when he is right it’s a mistake.
