By being on the roster at 4 p.m. (EST) on Saturday Eli Manning will collect his $5M roster bonus and it all but assures him of being a New York Giant for another season. Players have to be terminated by 4 pm Saturday in order not to collect their 5th day of league year bonuses.
Cash it before it is rescinded?

Between that and the other bonus, there's a solid waste of $11 million.
