That's a big drop in salary, especially considering that there are no signs that he got a signing bonus to make it happen. This is a straight up paycut, and doesn't put off any cap hits into the future. One might say, way to go Mark, what a team player. Of course, the Skins played hardball on this one. They surely said dude, accept a paycut or we'll drop you and you'll be lucky to make vet minimum. He surely saw the wisdom of taking the paycut.

But who cares how it happened, bottom line, that's $3.3 million, quite a bit of space.
