there's only 1 reason NOT to do this, if they are too cheap to pay his $500k this year. otherwise, he's safe on the NFI list for a few weeks, nothing future guaranteed, either cash or cap, so why not? (edit: with him injured, we are on the hook for something as an injury settlement anyway)
i see this as one of two ways - 1) they still believe he has solid potential, combined with chase daniel contract expiring, we are looking at murray and bray to compete for 2/3 spots next year, not a bad thing there, or 2) they sense somebody is sniffing around on bray, and don't want to release him. this locks him up even just short term at a minimum, so if somebody truly wants him to develop on their own, they gotta throw us a bone.
