Anyway, I cant see Bates not showing up at all, but he might hold out until the last minute. I dont like it though, not blaming it all on him, just think its very obvious he's no longer in the long term plans of the team and its time to let go and move forward on both sides. If I were Mike Brown I would release him now. Its best for both sides, imo. Why have a disgruntled player on the team, in the locker room every day? Bates didnt do well last year because money was in his mind. Not a good sign, imo.
If I’m worth 17 million per I’m not showing up to work for 13 million.
If my current job slashes my salary by 40% I’m not coming in….period. Just cause it’s large amounts doesn’t mean the guys shouldn’t get laid their worth. If top 5 FS pay is 16 million per in 2022 then Jesse shouldn’t play until he’s making that. Same as Burrow in 2025 or whenever his contract is up. If top QB pay is worth 60 million at that point then he shouldn’t play until it’s given. Easy
