Fournette had to settle for just $2 million because he is coming off a season with just 367 yards.
Mixon got his contract when he was coming off of back-to-back 1100 yard seasons.
The situations are totally different. Apples-to-oranges.
Fred, you may want to check your sources. Fournette signed a $2 million contract in 2020 (https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/tampa-bay-buccaneers/leonard-fournette-21745/) after rushing for 1,152 yards in 2019 (https://www.nfl.com/players/leonard-fournette/stats/career). Get your apples and oranges straight.
By the way, he just signed today for $3.25 million after his 367 yard 2020 season. He also had 448 post season yards. Still a great deal for the Bucs.
Nice try.
