I feel like they'll make a handshake deal to give him a respectable bump when he's eligible.
It' was a silly idea to make this public when he and his agent did. He def outplayed his contract., but he also signed it after an 8 sack season, a continuation of which would not have warranted a pay raise. He went for security instead of betting on himself. Understandable, but also impactful on his earnings.
Players betting on themselves is always risky. Bird in the hand and all. Trey is an essential part of the team, but that doesn't change the negotiation unless the team wants it to.
