The interesting part will be if jonah is willing to sit out mandatorys and or training camp where he must be fined and the team can not refund.  I dont expect jonah to go that far but well see

I and the NFL disagree. 

“Injuries sustained while a player is working out ‘on his own’ in a location other than an NFL facility are considered ‘Non-Football Injuries’ and are outside the scope of a typical skill, injury and cap guarantee,” the memo also said. “Such injuries are also not covered by the protections found in paragraph 9 of the NFL Player Contract, meaning that clubs have no contractual obligation to provide salary continuation during the year in which the injury was sustained.”
