Glenn, 32, became the second-highest paid player on the roster following the release of linebacker Jamie Sharper. Glenn is scheduled to make base salaries of $4 million in 2005, $4.25 million in 2006, and $5.5 million in 2007. Should the Texans fail to find a trading partner and release Glenn from his contract, they will assume his remaining $3.5 million in unamortized bonus money as dead space on the 2005 salary cap. That figure would lessen to just $1.16 million this year (and $2.33 million in 2006) if Glenn were released on or after June 1. Given the team's ample cap room this season, such a delay is not needed.
