What have you seen from his agent that suggests this contract negotiation won't be anything but a pain in the ass? Jesse Bates could have told his agent "That's enough money" and re-signed. He didn't. I don't fault Tee for trying to get as much as he can. But if he thinks he's going to squeeze WR1 money out of the Brown Family with a Chase extension on the horizon, he and his agent will be sorely disappointed.
I don't fault them for wanting to get as much as they can either. But it's not the agent's decision, it ultimately comes down to the player. If Tee wants to stay with Burrow and Chase, he will instruct his agent to get as much as he can get from the Bengals, then sign. And it's also not about dollar amount, it is about structure. Maybe Tee will chase the big money, maybe he won't. None of us know.
