If i'm misquoting or misunderstanding him, please let me know.

The 8.6 mil figure is from your post where you said his cap hit then put the 8.6 mil in parenthesis as to what we have remaining. If we have 8.6 mil in cap space now, then nothing changes by cutting him since his money is guaranteed and already figured into the cap space. The remaining cap space we have now will already include his salary into it. The money goes from being money paid to a player on the roster to dead money, but there is no additional hit for him.

The only change to our cap is paying the player that would take his roster spot.
