They chose to work with him to lower his salary so he could stay in a way that was fair for him and them. I think it's much more of an indicator how much they like him compared to them wanting him gone.
They gave Hendrickson an extra year and more money. That kinda indicates how much they like him.
They gave Mixon 40% less over the same number of years with only $2.75M in dead cap if they cut him next season. That kinda indicates they like him about 60% of how much they liked him previously.
Hendrickson is like the girlfriend they put a ring on it. Mixon is like the girlfriend who is way too much drama and high maintenance they gave an ultimatum to get their shit together or pack their shit and get out.
