explanation -
in the NFL, you used to be able to either cut players and take the full hit immediately, or wait till june 1st and take the hit for the following season... in the last CBA, both sides thought it was stupid to keep players on rosters that teams didn't want while all the free agency money dried up, so now teams can designate two players per year as post june 1 cuts, while releasing them immediately, saving everyone some hassle.
