If it were up to me and I was making the rules (which obviously it's not and I'm not) I would say a contract is a contract. You and a team come to an agreement on terms and sign for X number of years. You play those years under that contract, period. Whether you shine or stink, the contract is honored. No re-negotiating or extensions until the contract it over. If a player violates the contract, he is unable to play in the league again until he honors it. If a player is injured and his career over, the injury settlement is a percentage of the contract computed on how far into the contract they played. Problem solved.
