Minnesota details major cap-clearing restructures (T.J.

Detroit adds C Cade Mays, RB Isiah Pacheco after trading David Montgomery, re-signs Rocky Ya-Sin, signs Teddy Bridgewater, restructures Jared Goff to free cap, and releases Josh Paschal; they debate the Raiders’ three-year, $81M center deal and mention Kyler Murray and Kirk Cousins being released.
