and arent these contracts guaranteed for injury anyway?

I think what they might be going for here is that the players on the rosters are not employees but instead are independent contractors. 

Not sure how the players are classified in the CBA, but if they are listed as independent contractors then their benefits would be different. 

It is a bad look regardless of what he is going for and just the worst time to try doing it.
