    While Stallworth is suspended "indefinitely," the Browns will get immediate salary-cap relief of $745,000, which is Stallworth's scheduled base salary for 2009. But if they cut him now, he would cost the Browns about $7.6 million on their cap. If the Browns waited until 2010, there would be no salary-cap ramifications because the cap is expected to be abolished - unless the NFL and its players union reach an extension of the current collective bargaining agreement.
