LOL Gettleman is the Czar. Basically grabbed CJ by the balls and told him "go find something better" and he couldnt

He made that the day Hurney gave him that deal. DG just did some restructuring of his contract and that's why it's dead money now. $5Mish is what's being reported so he basically just took a $6M pay cut which is pretty substantial considering how well he played in the playoffs.

Damn!

This will be our biggest FA signing. 

From a cash cow to a borderline Panther goat if we win a Superbowl. 

[SOJA]

guys you aren't thinking clearly at all about the dead money....You realize what he was supposed to make BEFORE we cut him? a lot more than 5 million. The 5 million is money already spent. Gone. Goodbye 5 million. We never had a chance to get that money back. 

We just signed a 29 year old defensive captain to a VERY team friendly deal to see if he has one more season left in him. 

 

Oh and btw CJ was hurt all season and came "  " that close to changing the tide of the Superbowl. 

 

Yea I'm more than ok with this

Charles Johnson to me: "It’s not about the money. Carolina is home and I wouldn’t have been happy if I went somewhere else.”

Charles Johnson added, “The #Giants are a 1st class organization, but now I have one more year to get back where I want to be, at home."

 

yep one year deal , 

[TheRed]

Glad they could work something out. Hopefully CJ is looking for something to prove after last season. It's beneficial to everyone involved.

bahaha this is the most gettletastic thing i've ever heard. dump your large ass contract and make you come back on a prove-it deal, simultaneously clearing your salary, filling a free agent need, and stoking a fire under your performance.

amazing.

[OldNorthPowell]

Welcome back I hope he is motivated and comes in to camp in shape and ready to be the beast we all know he can be.

[Riverboat Ron]

Welp I was wrong, good guy Johnson showing his true colors. Hope he enjoys the ride.

[CarolinaJami']

Gettleman is that. Dude.
