Then, use his cap space to sign someone like Chase Young.
Now, you likely go into the season with a bottom 5 Guard tandem and a bottom 5 DE tandem. And DTs that cant rush the qb. Also, the secondary has questionmarks.
It would not be a horrible outcome to trade him to Atlanta for Bates. Then sign Clowney or Smith (DE"s) to replace Trey. problem is Bates has dead money and a 14 million cap hit and Trey would be potentially higher cap hit for a team tight now with cap space.
It is not to late to get a starting guard + a draft pick, if not then let him sit and we need some guys to step up quickly while he is out.

Please use 2025 free agency to fix the trenches, not the draft!!!!!!!!
