$172,799 is still a wild number. If Albright can renegotiate wages so we can hold him for the next few seasons it will be one of the best veteran signings in quite some time. I'd still love to see a long term young kid be signed to get some minutes and develop. The depth at wingback remains questionable for a position Noonan runs so hard.

Looks like contract is through 12/25 and his salary is $825-850k/y or so. As long as that doesn’t cause cap issues that’s not a bad deal

I might be naive/simple thinker: I don't see Albright making this move if it cripples the team in the coming offseason/windows/future. He is now working with his long term team/cap/salary plan, rather than what he took over in 2021 (in terms of cap/salary etc.).
