## Resource

Bengals just freed up $10M by restructuring Joe Burrow’s deal — big news that could reshape their defense. With cap space now available, linebacker needs aren’t as urgent, giving T.J. Slaton a reprieve. Slaton had a career year, excelling as a run-stopper — exactly what the team needs after last season’s struggles. While his future isn’t locked in forever (if they go after D.J. Turner or trade for a LB, or if McKinnley Jackson explodes), right now, he’s safe. His value as a backup nose tackle makes keeping him a smart move — and this financial flexibility could be key to building a better defense.
