Out of curiosity, if he fires that high-level player, does the guy retire instantly? Or does he end up on transfer market as a FA?
It occurred to me that if they just retire, someone could fire a NT player and really mess up that competition.
NT players can't be fired. If he fires the player and he's not an NT player, he goes on the TL under the normal FA rules (i.e., starting at 10x his salary or a max of 1 million) or if he didn't have enough of a salary to be saved, he'd be retired.
