Only if he is content to play for $3m this year, which is far from guaranteed. Then he would have to sign his franchise tag, which is also not guaranteed.
Players now have the hold-in route, and the "injured" route while they pump social media and the like with dissatisfaction and trade demands. He would get at least 4yr/$100m from someone if he was traded and extended, but if he has another couple concussions in 2023 while playing for $3m, that money would start shrinking.
