They allude to other teams adding the language, but paying more of the signing bonus up front. 


"It would be easy for the Bengals to justify the change by saying, “Well, other teams use contracts that apply a default in one year to all remaining years.” However, other teams pay out more of the signing bonus up front, too."


Still sounds to me like a Bengals thing!

I get that, it's why I said it's all negotiations, it appears they are changing the way they do contracts and you don't expect Mike Florio to side with the Bengal's organization do you?

The one thing we can agree on, without knowing specifics, is Stew is not participating in OTAs as many unsigned draft picks are.

As I said, folks will point finger at the side they don't like or have already gone against without knowing everything.
