Someone correct me if I have that wrong.

I said this like a month ago but i might be wrong the 30% rule only applies to a player after his rookie deal is up and for carr that was last year.So the chiefs can sign him whenever they want to now.
Carr was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the fifth round (140th overall) of the 2008 ... The Chiefs agreed to a three-year contract with Carr on June 11, 2008..Once carr signed that 1y 2m deal last offseason the 30% rule went bye-bye.
