Then asked how Mike Brown said they would bend over backwards and he was 2nd in priority after Burrow if he felt that from they're contract offers and he laughed and said he felt that way now. So maybe the contract was brought up by the Bengals originally but was not really in the ballpark of what other WR are getting? Then I could see a hold in taking place trying to get them to raise said #s. He said other contradicting statements as far as willing to play the season without a contract but still calling it a game time decision this week. Not sure how to take it all. But Chase has always been brutally honest with his takes it seems so no reason to doubt him here.

That's how negotiation works, both sides start far apart and then work their way toward an agreement that suits both parties.
