Yes, but that’s a bigger issue, more of an NFLPA/bargaining agreement thing. I see both sides. I’m mostly ok with players using their leverage when they can BC NFL contracts are not fully guaranteed. The owners are really the ones benefiting the most. How is it the most violent major professional sport is the one with the least player security.
If I’m the bengals, what really is the rush? He is under contract for 2 more years.
IMO get the deal inked. Meet him in the middle and push some of the guarantees to injury guarantees. Assuming he doesn’t get hurt, he will see the money.. bengals MO, if he gets hurt?
He gets his guarantee.
Idk, this shouldn’t be this hard.
