The Washington Redskins, one of the teams we believed was in danger of not being cap compliant when league accounting rules changed, have restructured the contract of DE Stephen Bowen to gain the needed cap room. The Redskins dropped Bowen’s P5 from $3.9 million to the league minimum and converted the balance to a signing bonus that will be prorated over the final 3 years of the contract. The moves saves Washington $2.04 million in salary cap space in 2013.
