Of course, IF he gets tagged and sits out he loses that money, and it also eats up salary cap space as the Bengals have to keep that space there in case he reports.
If he sits out the year, doesn't technically his contract roll into the next year?
I thought it did.
Or do you mean half year is the cutoff to still count to accrue the year?
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
Sorry for Party Rocking!
