NFL:
Does Clapp’s IR status affect the Saints’ early-season cap flexibility or depth charts at guard/center?
Qwiket AI:
IR designation removes Clapp from the active roster, reducing immediate depth but not drastically shifting cap structure. The Saints can replace him on the 53-man roster via a short-term call-up or a waiver addition. Depth charts will churn, but the team can reallocate funds if needed while still pursuing a durable interior option before Week 1.
