Kevin Byard restructures contract

Tennessee Titans safety Kevin Byard restructured his deal before Monday night's game to free up some cap space.

Before last night’s opener, the #Titans restructured safety Kevin Byard’s contract for salary cap purposes, clearing $6.12 million in 2020 cap space. He still makes $9.1M this season.

The restructure is most likely to create room for some extensions. Tight end Jonnu Smith is one who comes to mind.

Byard had a forced fumble in Monday night's win.
