    Nope. they cut him just after he tried to skip bail and was found in the trunk of that car in tennessee. but keep in mind, there weren't nearly the salary cap implications for Carruth that the falcons would have in cutting Vick. There is still something like $22 million in pro-rated bonus monies left on his deal. Cutting him now would likely result in a $7ish million hit this year and a $15ish milliong hit next year.

    if they were able to recoup the un-accrued bonus money, i guess they could get some cap relief. But how long is that gonna take?

    If he were to get hurt and they cut him, they wouldnt get any cap relief. Why should they get a break because he is a criminal?
