Bishop wont play again and Mony will but that makes no difference on the contract unload.
The only difference is Mony has some type of no trade list.
Youre very helpful tho.

Monny will count against the cap because he will be healthy enough to play. And his team will play real dollars to him. His contract has negative calue.
Bishop will never play, his salary is paid by insurance and will only count against the cap if his team wants it to. Therefore, to a team wanting to hit the cap floor, they can take on Bishop for minimal cost in terms of draft picks and money paid.
It makes an exceptional difference in unloading the contract. Who wants to pay Monny $6M+ to play poorly and take up cap space?
