The biggest one that this is a big Training Camp for is 4th year Cornerback Artie Burns, Burns had a good Rookie season and then a big drop off last season. It seemed he had a hard time getting over a couple of penalties early in the season.

Here are the players that could be on the Bubble:

  2. Jerald Hawkins, OT Cap Savings: $720,000 Dead Money: $132,622
  3. Tyler Matakevich, LB Cap Savings: $720,000 Dead Money: $15,763
