Eric... I get that you don't want Tee here and I understand why (he is often injured and will miss 5 or 6 games a year) but Joe Burrow wants him
back and he said he would do a restructure to keep his guys here. Tee is one of the ones he mentions. Personally, I would tag Tee and trade him
for something. But if we bring him back Tee's contract will need to be filled with incentives for how much he plays.
If Tee is injured all the time, it shouldn't cost us much with the incentive laden contract. If he stays healthy, great and he makes a lot of money and
we are a far more effective passing Offense.
