He took less money to stay w the Bengals than he would have received elswhere.

Imagine if I played 3rd down all year ?? i would’ve went crazy ?

How is he not a 2 down LB? Even by his own complaints multiple times he doesn't play 3rd downs. Maybe HE thinks he can become an every down LB, but that doesn't mean he is, or that the league views him as such.


Did he turn down more elsewhere? Because I never saw that report. The LB market was oversaturated this off-season and there were tons of 3-down LBs available. He doesn't play all downs, and he doesn't rush the passer. He is the highest paid player of that type. Overestimating your value, testing the market and finding out you aren't getting what you hoped before being brought back to reality is not the same as taking less to play here.
