He's not ****ing poor. Oh, and he's insured.
Jesus, take the $5 million you save on Berry's salary and give it to the Children's Miracle Network to actually spend on kids that could use it for all I care. It fixes our cap and isn't a completely unnecessary handout.
The chickenshit PR move is to keep paying him. Every single bit of logic and reason says you cut him to veterans minimum and stick him on the NFI list.

There's nothing wrong with good PR. And the season hasn't started yet, they have plenty of time to put him on the NFI if they want.
I understand that clearing the cap space is a good football move, but if they want to use the money to honor a contract given to an good young man that fell into a shitty situation while reaping the benefits of very positive PR, then so be it.
Good relations with your fan base and the players on your team are also good football moves.
