I don't think that anyone is advocating that the Chiefs turn their back on Berry. But the fact is that he has a non-football illness and the Chiefs can most certainly use the $5 million in cap space. Also, I find it very unlikely that a player of Berry's status and contract doesn't have disability insurance, which would likely pay at least 80%, if not 100% of his salary.
