I just ran a dated search for anything before this offseason into start of last season. The only interview that came up that kind of had something on this was from one really early in the year that asked if he'd be willing to take less to keep others. He said that was a good question and he said it depends because if he did they may cut someone else, or use the money somewhere else (Not sure what he meant) but he never says he would. There was also a quote from right after Justin Jefferson signed who said he was happy for him to get a new deal as it would set the market for him.
I don't see anywhere really where he said he didn't want to be the highest paid, or definitively where he said he'd take less to keep others.
