I think that's a big assumption.
It's one thing for players to look around the league and see that all the teams are being hampered this year, and be sympathetic to the situation the Chiefs are in. It's something entirely different for them to just flat out agree to take a pay cut.
The other side, if they are simply restructures without pay cuts, is that the team probably doesn't want to do it unless they have to. It may be a matter of mortgaging the future. I'm sure the FO doesn't want to do that unless it's absolutely neccessary.

that's it ... put the chiefs cap situation on the players
most players will restructure ANY time the team wants them to. The players usually MAKE money on restructures because they get more money upfront.
all the team has to do is ask unless they are trying force a salary cut.
what matters is whether team is willing spend more money or not ...... Lamar hunt is not a free spender.
