Im a little surprised, interested to see the numbers on this. Hes still solid and a leader but I dont think his play is where it used to be.

Yeah, no word on numbers yet, but a good bet it will lower his 2021 $6.7 million cap hit.

I just thought wed want to see his play this year first, with him being on the wrong side of 30 and the cap situation I thought he may be gone sooner rather than later but clearly not. Im happy we still have him don't get me wrong

excellent and smart move - 3 more years if it goes to the max will be 8 years - this was a  find and a big hit by McD - this one precedes Beano

2=year extension worth 19.25M per NFL Network h/t espn

Likely helps drop his cap number for next year and the guaranteed signing bonus is probably spread out over 3 years making it easier to cut him at any time after next year. This is 100% a move to help free up cap dollars in some way.

Exactly-- an extension but also lowering his salary for the upcoming year. I think this is a great signing and I am sure that if we release him after this year or 2022 -- that it wont count much against the cap.

Rapoport says this is incorrect. Cap number is "essentially the same".
