Also, I don’t believe this “source” for a second. Bates has specifically said he doesn’t need to be the top paid safety in the league.

First year as a Captain. His teammates passed him over and chose Shawn Williams (who sat on the bench) and Vonn Bell (who had just joined the team) to be captains over him in 2020. So I don't know how much real weight the whole captain angle holds, feels a bit overblown.
