Chad Johnson's take on the negotiations.  Notice how he uses Mike Brown's name and not Katie's or Duke's?  I would think Chad has more insight than any of us here.

“I’m sure Joe Burrow will probably grow frustrated at some point not having his top receiver out there,” Johnson predicted. “I don’t think Joe Burrow would allow Mike [Brown] to do that. You understand how important Jamarr Chase is to the success of the Bengals.”

Those two (Katie & Duke) may craft the deals, but you can bet MFB gives the major decisions (like Burrow's/Chase's contracts) the thumbs up or thumbs down.  MFB doesn't need to do all the work anymore but the buck stops with him and always has.
