Both sides are trying to get something that allows them to keep the team together.
I understand it, but I care so much more about the team having more good players than one guy being the highest paid at his position. Just 2 years ago Josh Allen signed for $43M and in less than 24 months the number has to be $53M or the QB wont be happy? Again, I get it. But I will not be a bleeding heart for these guys that make millions playing a game, especially QBs at the > $40M per year, which is insanity - yes, again, I get it, they generate the revenue, I'm not saying let the owner's keep all of it, but those that spread the wealth a little seem to be more successful... Brady, Mahomes.....
