    The New York Giants have carved out a little bit more salary cap space by re-structuring the contract of defensive end Mathias Kiwanuka.

    According to the New York Daily News Kiwanuka was due to make $2.95 million in salary in 2013, but his new salary is $1.45 million. The remaining $1.5 million was converted into a bonus which, for salary cap purposes, will be prorated over the life of the contract. The move saves the Giants $1 million against the 2013 salary cap. Kiwanuka would have counted $5.125 million against the cap in 2013. He will now count $4.125 million against the cap, says the Daily News.
