Michael Carter's pay cut just made him look even better to Eagles fans

The Philadelphia Eagles went into the offseason really needing help with the salary cap, and they were happy to get some from their cornerback, Michael Carter II.

Carter reportedly took a pay cut, which earned the respect of the fan base, but no one knew by how much. Spotrac reported that Carter's new contract is a one-year, $2.765 million restructured deal. That helped the Eagles gain $8.5 million in salary cap space.

Last season, Carter was part of a trade the Eagles made with the New York Jets at the trade deadline.
