[*pally*]

Jessie Bates on not getting his extension before the season: "I wish it would have got done, obviously. They got Sam (Hubbard) done I was hoping to be the next guy done."

Finally, Bates on playing with a chip on his shoulder after the team wouldn't pay him: "I need to continue to show it with my play, I'll be a little pissed off, for sure."

Last question of Bates presser is @KelseyLConway asking if he thinks he should be the highest paid safety in the NFL. He says "no comment" and walks off saying "thanks you guys."
