Could that story be leaked from TFC's side to try and drum up interest?
And if the salary cap is raised to $7M and they do get the 4th DP (which counts for 12.5% of the total team budget), the DP hit will be $875K, which would give TFC an additional $1.125M of cap space breathing room to hire reinforcements. So long as Manning doesn't interfere. I'm willing to give Jason a chance here, because it's a win-win either way: If Hernandez is successful, we have some hope for 2024. If he bombs out, then Manning is pretty much guaranteed to be tossed and we have hope for 2025 to start fresh.
