Geno was never going to take a pay cut to stay in Cincinnati. He knows his self value.
He knows he can go on the free agency market and still make 8-10M per year.
He also knows he can potentially go to a team headed to the playoffs and/or Super Bowl.
He isn't going to do that here until maybe next year. The team currently assembled won't make the playoffs in 2021 from the AFC North.
Smart move by the organization. Geno's a legend on the DL for the Bengals and hopefully will be in the ring of fame some day (if they do introduce it this year).
This move was always on the cards but Geno is one of the greatest players this franchise has ever seen and we should remember that.
ps He won't be picking up $8-10m per year being cut this late
