Cardinals veteran outside linebacker Joey Porter, who is scheduled to earn $5.75 million in base salary for the 2011 season, could be on his way out once the new league year starts. While a million of the salary is guaranteed, a source told FOXSports.com that it’s guaranteed only for injury.
Porter obviously isn’t injured, so the Cardinals can take themselves off the hook for the entire $5.75 million salary by releasing him after the lockout. Arizona isn’t exactly deep at outside linebacker, but Porter’s scheduled pay is still unjustifiable considering his recent performance and age (34).
