[Whatever]

I agree if he is gonna serve a suspension it is better now because he is a free agent next year, but also the shorter leash that comes with the elevated discipline from this infraction to the next also hurts his free agency stock, so it may be worth fighting.

Burfict doesn't have even a fraction of Brady's money to throw at a drawn out legal battle.  It just doesn't make financial sense for him to take it to that level just to likely lose.
