Same reason treliving always had old vets. With the veterans at $1MM that’s all that counts against the cap.

Player on ELC at $900k also has performance bonuses which factor into to cap penalties for future years. It’s easy to say let’s the kids play but you better have a cap structure to absorb the bonuses in future years if they hit them
